Everyone is connected in one way or another. An ex-significant other may be the schoolmate of one of your colleagues. This colleague may know the current significant other of another colleague. Thus, the current significant other your other colleague may know your ex-significant other.
Confusing? I guess that is why there is an emergence of various social networking sites. Site A helps you connect and share with the people in your life. Site B claims that it is a place for your friends. Site C focuses on helping you stay in touch with friends and discover new people and things that are important to you. Site D strengthens and extends your existing network of trusted contacts.
These sites suddenly find connections through the relationships you currently have. It may seem be interesting to find out that you are related to this certain someone in some way but on the other hand, it may also be freaky because the world it getting smaller which is a great advantage for stalkers.
So, should I kill my online life?
