FACE TO FACE- A DIFFERENT KIND

We always have this meeting in the office called Face to Face meeting. We fix a date to meet + think. Some came just to meet , others came to think. On a friendlier note , I keep in touch with friends old or new, on the social networking tool eg FaceBook. I know why its called FACEBOOK. cos its meant to replace Face to Face, sadly .These friends are not in my face but I am updated on their routines and lives like an open book.

I am not in the least surprised to have read somewhere that social networks have moved ahead of personal emails . I am a virgin when it comes to FACEBOOK , having been on it only under a month. But i like it instantly because, I can POKE my friends. Poke function , I think , are just to nudge a friend to say Hi , u are on my mind. I am no expert on FACEBOOK but that's my interpretation of POKE. I cant possibly do that on an email, can I? I did communication back then, way back , its a complex process with many error potentials. Some meaning can be lost in that simple transmission process. But when I looked at communication now, its getting shorter and shorter. How communication have evolved. of course. Will i still continue with face to face with friends , of course but a different kind.
