[melpomene]

It is an interesting phenomenon ............. more tuning into the internet.

There are now studies being done by Sociology departments of university's on the communities of the internet.

You have all heard of SecondLife? It is a virtual world, where you take on an animated avatar and wander through this virtual world, where you can buy property and date. Its fascinating.

Its even more fascinating why people turn to these alter egos as such.

I have been studying forums for five years.

Your name, avatar, your sig, your responses all say who you are.

Psychologists/Sociologists say that we reinvent ourselves online. We become what we cant be in our everyday realities.

I will be interested to observe human behaviour in 25 years time. To see if the art of interpreting body language will have diminished, particularly in our young.
