Virtually virtual

Well…the buzzword these days is social networking. If you are not on Facebook or Twitter you are really not in with the times. What however is interesting to me is the way such activities are redefining relationships and friendships.
In earlier times, you met a person, you talked, you met again, you talked and then slowly you would decide whether this person shared your wavelength or not. You took your time in deciding whether you would share something in common with this person. Slowly you would build an understanding, and take the relationship to a level to which you felt comfortable. You were able to see the person in flesh and blood. You were able to trust your five senses to judge and assess the other person’s reactions or their body language. You heard their voice and saw their face and well…it was a person to person engagement.
