MySpace, Facebook, Friendster...

There are SO many places out there to network, to meet new people and make new friends. It's funny though, most of the friends I have on these sites are people that I already know. I'm not really into strangers - I think I may have a bit of a phobia when it comes to that - so I am more comfortable with just talking with people that actually know me, and not people that are adding me to their "space" to build a decent total of friends. Are we really judging people that way? Don't we have enough in life to worry about than whether or not we have 20,30, or 200 strangers reading about us every day? Is this the way the simple man can be famous - without going out of their house?

Funny thing is, there are so many fake people out there, how do you REALLY know who you're talking to? It's such a scary thing to think about... you really just want to take people at their word so it's not so spooky. The alternative being some overweight, middle-aged guy sitting at his computer in the dark - pretending to be a cute 13 year old girl (shudder) - can you imagine? Well, I certainly can - hence, the reason I am so careful as to who I communicate with.


It's funny, I was planning on writing a huge blog about how I'm going to try and put all my thoughts together here, at blogger - instead of all the networking sites I'm a member of... but I just had that thought and I had to get it out... sorry 'bout that.
