As the world became increasingly complicated and people became busier, people had less time to interact.
As the world became more intense and people became overwhelmed, people needed simple ways to communicate.
As the world became more expensive and people had less money, people had fewer ways to spend time together.
As the world became closer and more intimate, people had less of a desire to communicate face-to-face.
