a different form of connection....

i have a bunch of blog, msn and myspace buddies and it seems to be growing all the time...

i have one friend i’ve been talking to almost daily on msn for a about 1 1/2 years....we have only meet in person about 4 or 5 times...he calls himself a hermit...it’s a different form of friendship ..but i do consider him a friend never the less.

some of my internet buddies i have never meet.....we just send messages on each others blogs and myspace every now and again...mostly friends of friends. one that i don’t even know her real name or what city she lives in.... odd. i guess.

i have two new friends...i met in real life first... because i recognised from someone else's blog at an art opening...and just started talking to them...

i first went on myspace b/c alot of dancers are on it and it was a way to keep in touch with ones you meet at exchanges out of town....as well as keep informed about upcoming events. it’s works really well for that...but the way i use it has expanded for sure.

i almost feel like it’s become my tv. when i want to relax at home and do nothing...i turn my computer on....catch up with people...

it may be an odd way of connecting with people...but is a way....

* my apologises for the poor writing skills tonight...i'm pretty tired. might have to edit later....

Don't really sure if it's an "odd" way of connecting with people... It's just a new one... I think it works as a kind of confessional. You don't know the real name, the city were she/he lives in, but you can reach that she/he wants to show, that side it's maybe more difficult to know...
And it's, as you say, so relaxing... Cause everyone is outthere, "waiting" for you, and as tv, you can turn it/them off when you get bored!
Enjoy!
