I like this Post a lot, but then I always enjoy your posts such a lot. i love having Internet friends and although it would be lovely to head out on a Blogit face to face trip...I suppose some folks could be a bit different in person. Still those that write regularly, it is sort of easy to feel some how that one knows them.

Re: FormerStudentIntern.
It does seem that some of us look for real connections online, others want to take advantage of factors that let them pretend to be significant. They get an ego boost, I suppose, from fooling other people. They think it's others they are making fools of.

Re: CCT,
Friendships online are different from those in person, but they are as real and meaningful, and as important. They're just different.

I try to present myself as genuinely as I can online as well...I am amazed by some of the websites I have seen that have trolling on them.

LP! Ciel. I think I probably say some things sometimes that I would not say to blogit members. Perhaps here we seek a kind of friendship alien
to larger sites. We kind of think we know what makes another tick.
I suppose if one collates an individual's reminisces over a year or two,
one does form a rough idea of their makeup. I know this might be a
bit contrary to what you are saying. Although I do agree with your
basic observations. Folk will tell millions the very things they would
hide from themselves almost.
