They say the world has come closer due to the technology today, they say the world has become smaller due to the advances in communications. Once upon a time not long back ago, people used to send telegrams, people used to order trunk calls. And today, we are just a click away from each other. Yahoo chat, messenger, mobiles, skype, facebook, twitter. We all snoop into each others living rooms and kitchens almost daily. Previously the aim of taking photographs was to preserve the beautiful memories of the moment, but today we do it to upload on facebook. Before your grand mom comes to know that your wife just delivered a baby, your friend circle knows because you were sitting on twitter to tweet the moment it happened. But sometimes I wonder, are we living in some virtual world? A world where you share your deepest thoughts and feelings as your ‘status update’ with God-knows-how-many people? A world where a friend whom you have not met in a decade comments on your daily activities? A world where a friend of friend, whom you have not even seen, casually pokes you? While in reality, your partner is unaware of your feelings, your parents have no idea of your daily activities, and you have had no time for your best friend? This reminds me of a line from ‘The perfect stranger’ – We are connected online but disconnected in life!
