A place to stay

If the internet was a place to stay i think it would be very interesting to say the least, if there were city blocks within the internet called facebook or myspace i think it would create a whole new dynamic that never existed before in society. For one i think the community as a whole would be more dynamic and interesting everybody would have something to say about everything which i think would also be its most annoying aspect of living someplace inside the internet. People would openly talk to you about subjects that should be kept anonymous. I think the foundation of the internet and social networking sites being as popular as they are. Are built on the foundation of anonymity, meaning if people don't know you then you can say anything you want without consequence. Everybody is connected however inside the community because they all relate to each other by what they all represent. So if I'm living on the social networking block then everybody on the block can at least relate to me on that aspect. So we can all feel at home but at the same time separated by our opinions and feelings on "life". Throw in internet forums and then you have society in general as we know it only instead of most people staying silent about their beliefs everybody would have something to say about everything which in turn would be total chaos.
