Texting and e-mail and posting let us present the self we want to be. This means we can edit. And if we wish to, we can delete. Or retouch: the voice, the flesh, the face, the body. Not too much, not too little just right.. Sherry Turkle, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT): The Flight From Conversation. April 22, 2012
