All these things we now do online definitely makes global communication easier. Anybody who has a computer/internet can post comments to articles/blogs and it does not matter where they are. Anybody can make a profile and join a social networking site and chat with other members across the continent/world. One can say it is a good thing. It is a sign of progress thru the use of technology. On the other hand, this global communication thru the internet/computer has a definite ugly side. For starters, there is no accountability one assumes when he says something in person. It is because anybody can make an account and post nasty comments on an article/blog. They do not have to be ashamed of what they say cause nobody knows who they are. They can remain anonymous. And another thing, those who join chat sites can get away without posting their true face pictures. They can just have their torso, butt or dick as their picture. Or they can post another person's picture. Or they can post their picture from 20 years ago. These people can easily deceived another during a chat into thinking he is one thing when in person he is not. If these interactions were in person, everybody has to show their true likeness in order to engage another. Have you every chatted in person to another person who has his head covered by a paper bag? I don't think so.
It is just very sad how people out there can use computer/internet into something unbecoming. It ruins it for the rest of us.
