Default this internet thing ??????

I was talking to Monika yesterday and have stolen her idea, but as it struck a cord thought it worth while posting.

What does it mean to you?

A few of my thoughts on the subject.

Having been a forum member for a long time now (about 6 years) I've made some good friends, although I must admit perhaps the price of progress is the change in the feel of the place these days.

I guess at this time of forced immobility it's a lifeline to the world outside and stops me feeling so isolated.

For my own part I've always had a problem with people met over the internet, well at least until I get to see them face to face, they feel some how dis-enbodied or perhaps 2D would be closer. high lighted by thing like those you know from the AR and those you don't.

I'm a frequent ebay user and find the conveniance of it most useful.

Would I miss it, well yes to be honest, something to do when you can't ride your bike.

Be interesting to know what it means to others?

Cheers Mark
