Are we becoming networks of isolated individuals without local community sensibilities?

i think the best thing about internet is that you have more chances to find people to relate to, than in real life.

Absoultely.. the internet is making relationships less personal. I know I am beginning to just accept a colon and a closing parenthesies sign :) << that my friends and family are well and good.
I spend almost no time on the phone and I am text messaging, myspacing, and e-mailing more than anything else. It's a new era of communication, but it is certainly straining personal and social relationships.
good question!

Yahoo says that is has formed a global community by starting
this form. We are all members of it whether you accept or not.
My experience with Yahoo Answers is very positive.
Sitting here in India as an old retired person, I could not have
made those rare friendships if it is not for the Internet in
general, and Yahoo in particular.
