Narcissism is an empty buzzword. People are just communicating, the only thing that has changed is the technology.
A word doesn't become a buzzword just because you disagree with it. I used the word 'narcissism' (thanks Catlady) because that's what I believe it to be. Personally, I find the phrase, "People are just communicating, the only thing that has changed is the technology" trite to the point of inanity but that's only my opinion and only because I disagree with you.

I guess we'll have to take opposing viewpoints on this
