true Miss misa but it sure seems strange to me.


One thing I do notice though is that many people can be organised and that in some of these Parties where someone invites all their friends to their own house can cause havoc. it obviously is a way of communicating and getting news spread in a way theat before would have been much harder. protests,revolutions, crowd gathering is an example of this. In a University no doubt you can know many people which is useful for organising also and cheaper than having to advertise in papers etc. Obviously in a school, college or UNi situation where you come into contact with many people many of you will know each other. I remember my gr children on Messenger-- so many saying hi and that was about it-- used to seem odd to me when she saw them every day at school.

I am sure it could be a good way for lonely people to communicate also. I used to like the CB radio where you could chat with others but you did really chat-- but also had to be extremely careful of giving personal details because anyone could always be listening to conversations.
it too could be dangerous.It was also a lifeline to the many really lonely folk out there. Before the days of the internet. Not everybody can afford a computer of course.

There is such a gap between my generation and your own and sometimes it takes a lot of adjusting to what your generation takes for granted--

I like to choose my real friends--maybe there should be a different word for internet acquaintances.

Miss Misa it sounds as though you live a very fulfilled and active life so that is great. Maybe thats one of the perks of being a part of university. Many opportunities to meet a great variety of people.

I noticed that Nick Clegg refused to apologise for reneging on his promise about students fees when in discussion with some students.

I don't actually care how many facebook or internet friends people add-- but it just seems weird to say they are friends in such numbers.

What I call a friend is someone who is always there for you in every situation and vice versa.

I wonder what the next ten or twenty years will bring forth? I doubt I'll be around to discover that. LOL
