If a man got arrested on suspicion of arson which took place between the hours of 10pm and 11pm, could he use his internet logs as defence? “Oh your honour there is no way I could have done this. Between those hours all 356 persons on messenger saw me online, I sent 6 messages on facebook, updated my twitter, added 3 youtube videos to my favourites and added a new photo to by hi5 page.”

Are we spending too much time chatting over the net and not enough time face to face with those friends? Everyone has a computer at work, another one at home and a blackberry or some other smart phone. When do we ever plug out? Is the Matrix about to be a reality, where we give up our fleshy bodies and simply explore with our minds?

This guy would certainly be happy with that.
Already in a sick and twisted matrix

It seems our way of communicating has evolved. We are now moving away from face to face and voice communication to communicating electronically. Now that guy is just sick.

I still prefer face to face. But i like those social networks as well, to save on bus fare to those faces i dont get to see often. It helps.
