Is a strange concept. One that will never stop confusing me, I wont even try to pretend to understand how it works because I don’t, but one thing a lot of us know is how to use it. With one of its biggest factors being social networking. Its amazing to think that we can now share images, videos and conversations at the click of a button. Its also amazing how we use the Internet on a personal level. When you think about it, to sit alone at a computer, typing and clicking away is such a personal experience, yet what sometimes slips our mind is that we are in fact connected to the rest of the world. Not only does the Internet let us keep in contact with far away friends or even find new friends from across the globe but during this personal experience it seems to let us put our guard down, perhaps saying things we wouldn’t when in a face to face conversation or posting personal matters and thoughts for the eyes of the world.
(Reading that paragraph back to myself and I cant help but hear David Attenborough's voice in my head...and it sounds a lot better when he says it.)
