1. You accidentally enter your ATM PIN on the microwave.
2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.
4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.
6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries...
7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen
8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't even have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it
9. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee

My wife is guilty of number 6. She has even rung me from bed to remind me to feed the cat before I come upstairs. Not that my phsychotic 17 year old tabby would let me forget....

Probably just different!
I saw a picture the other day where it quoted: "10 friends on Facebook are worth one in real life" - I totally agreed!

Is it sad?

I have some amazing "cyber" friends and so many friends that I just would never have met.

I absolutely agree Jo - I have many friends, just a couple of really close friends, but I now have lots of friends here and just a few rellies and I don't think it's a bit sad :-)
