the inherent Life in Communities !

Hi there ,
Nowadays i have the liberty to work from home . So have converted one of my rooms into my ER , Entertainment/exercising/E-internet/Escape Room also use it as my office whenever i get time . Some perks of sticking on to the same organization for some time .... (It helps believe me)

Was browsing around into the various online sites where i am a priviledged .. Mostly referring to the Networking sites like Orkut, Ryze etc (tho i am a member only to these two at present) . Just Bumped into one realy old friend of mine.with whom I had lost touch years ago and now it turns out that he is staying quite close to my house, here in T Nagar. That got me thinking that Orkut has actually helped me to establish contact with phenomenal number of people from my College, PG, School etc etc from aeons ago .

But the point that is bugging me is that , what is the kind of gratification that someone gets by "networking" or by establishing contact . If you have not maintained contact with a particular person then all said and done that person is not relevant to yoou in the current scheme of things !!!! so how on earth does it matter ???????????

but it does and we all know that . Although the affiinity that a person has for taking the pains to network , make friends is quite inherent . I have always been a person who would like to make groups , get people in , invlove them so it is hardly surprising that i have taken to such communities like fish to water.
But there are people who are still not comfortable with this medium . They woould sign up , but still not browse and search around and these would typically be people who do not respond to e-groups mails ... This is why i said this behavior is inherent and mostly not acquired.

Chalo enough of rambling for today . In case anyone has a point PLEASE do post comments.
