Are you really Connected?



wow! one more social networking website.. chance to make more online friends!.. this is what most of us think, whenever we hear about a new launch.. we all enjoy adding friends.. we all enjoy uploading pics.. we all enjoy playing FarmVille, mafiawars and all.. these so called social networking sites make our life real cool and happening.. 3 cheers for them!!.. huh!.. sharing your flat with 3 other friends.. knock-knock!!.. somebody is at door.. he is your roommate's friend.. roommate introduces him to you.. you say hi.. and you continue staring at your monitor instead of talking to him.. you are busy in adding new "eFriends" in your friends list.. something is happening new in your life but you are unaware.. or say intentionally avoiding it to be happen.. because you are busy in your virtual world.. all isn't well in your life these days.. you are searching for job.. the guy just walked in your room, working in a reputed software company.. he could have recommended your name for a vacancy in his current project.. it only could have happened if you had started a conversation with him.. but you were busy in harvesting your crop in FarmVille.. or updating your status message in Orkut!.. huh!!
I don’t say that Social Networking sites are bad but one has to use it keeping the difference in mind between the "Real connectivity" and "Virtual connectivity"... and to whom should be given the priority!
