Staring into the face of Cyberspace


Social interactions have started to become almost entirely online for me. Living in a society that glorifies mobility and change, it's amazing to find stability in the last place I ever thought to look: the Internet. I am by no means a cyber-nerd, though I love technology and spend a good deal online.
 
Having moved around a lot in my life, the cozy little corners I have found, where I can keep my friends close enough that I don't lose then with a move, have mostly been online. Myspace, World of Warcraft (though, I've detatched from that void) Facebook, Blogger... and now Twitter and Posterous are being added to my online social repertoire.
 
I haven't taken the time to make these spaces comfortable yet, but they have become indespensible in maintaining the basic need to feel connected in a disconnected life. So, we'll see where we go from here.
