love of facebook, twitter, etc....

Facebook has rather become a big part of my life. It allows me to share my feelings with those i know and "dont". It gives me the platform to showcase and express myself in ways that i could not do in reality. It also gives a few of you out there a glimpse of how fabulous and wonderful and gorgeous we may be. Some of us live and breath these networks. I think its fair to say that these networks do play a big part in our daily communication with people some of whom we have never met before in our lives, but then all of that is bridged by modern communication. Lets face it, a lot of lives have changed with this new evolution in technology. I mean, just imagine, a while back when we didn't have all this, how were we able to connect and communicate with people whom we hardly new and become close friends with them to the extent of a potential serious relationship?
Personally, i think its one of the greatest inventions of all times. It works for me and keeps me in touch with a lot of people I would like to communicate with, and most of all, also contains a number of possibilities of meeting new and potential life partners. We are given the freedom to create the people we want to be, and ultimately a number of us have different characters and personalities in these virtual networks in which case now poses a threat to people who have never really met us in person . Now we may not be aware of the intricate relations we have and what impact these social networks have on us as individuals and the way we socialise, but just think about this, how many times in a day or week you use these networks and how has it affected your life both personally and otherwise socially?
