I'm addicted to websites that are made for "networking". I can't seem to stop myself! argh! i'm here on tig, blackplanet, friendster, hi5 and i don't even know the other ones cuz i forget about them and i plan on joinning more. but so far I am yet to make an actual friend through one of these sites. so what is the purpose? society has technologically advanced but were we really ready for it as human beings? It seems like we loose touch with people instead of connecting with a broader spectrum of people. perhaps this is only me? but if it is, I feel a lil fucked up.
any way, my real point is that IT is great but stupid lil chat things and networking web sites are drainning us of interpersonal* connections. at least that's how it feels to me. how many people actually write letters any more? i try to write some to my friends in Toronto, but we don't really keep up with it. And the phone has sort of become oblivious. Very rarely do people around me seem to actually call each other. perhaps it's just my friends, but it's still a valid point. It all seems a lil fucked. Everyone seems to just talk through msn, aim, icq or the thousands of other chat sites and messenger services available. that's my rant, i hope you enjoyed it and i'm really looking forward to peoples feedback.
