Answer» Do You LIVE on a SOCIAL Island?
The internet attracts many people who OTHERWISE can not do well socially.They live on Social Islands.
Look at this cartoon for the NYT.

(click on link to see image.)
Do lyou sometimes feel that that cartoon?
Why? Or why not?
Does the internet HELP or hurt?I would consider it probable that too many people rely on the internet for social needs.
I'm not a person who "hangs out" with anyone, but, I see my friends at school.
Then I go home and crunch away on the computer.
I wouldent call myself socially damaged though. Definitely not. Have I known people who are? Yes. Many.
Maybe the guy who drew that cartoon needs a Social Life...just a thought.
