The Weird World of Chat !

Chat.. a word that is common in most people's vocabulary these days. Companies are trying everything to stop people from doing just that and get back to work :) Something that lets us know people better. Something that relieves stress and helps u vent a lot. Something we reserve friendship for.

Internet chat has acted as a medium for the same, however people have misused it to the extent of people wanting to shun it completely as useless technology. The possibility of talking to nameless,faceless yet a living, breathing individual on the other end, who could be a lot like you and maybe understand you better than any person who exists in your life right now, is something to root for..instead of shunning.

But true, the nameless, faceless factor tends to be drawn to a bad advantage by many miscreants as well and it becomes so tough to demarcate the good from the bad. If you are not smart enough, there is a clear chance of losing yourself to it and getting stuck in serious trouble, like I myself did, at a very young, unwise age. Although have also made some lasting friendships through it.

Internet is such a wide and well-rounded media. It has its good and bad sides. To be able to discern and use it wisely, rests with us I guess...
