This is probably not a good thing for the employers, but it demonstrates the increased degree of communication due to modern technology.
Of course, some technologies have increased loneliness by any standards, such as the automobile or other transportation mechanisms.
These encourage substantially longer commutes between home and work.
Automobiles have made possible the pattern of suburbanization that has been in place in the United States since immediately after World War Two.
Time spent commuting is generally unproductive and spent alone, unless the individual in question is car-pooling or using mass transit.
The contribution of the commuting culture to loneliness may actually be changing now due to new technology that is being invented and used by the general public.
Popular new devices, such as the cellular phone, the laptop computer, and the combination thereof may actually convert commuting time to a period of increased communications between people, to pass the time.
This will be especially true as use of mass transit grows, which will probably happen, due to problems with gas shortages, air pollution, and the creation of further mass transit by federal and local governments.
The motivation for the declaration that loneliness is increasing may be due to the fact that many people, especially blue-collar workers, are unable to afford or use these new devices.
