On a positive note


One of the great things about this world of electronic communication is the ability to hear from (and have conversations with) people you would never have the chance to meet in your day to day life. This ability to transcend the confines of space and geography is truly amazing. For instance I was visiting my daughter's blog and noticed that some of her followers were from around the world and I realized that to travel to that country and track down a particular individual would be extremely expensive (not to mention difficult.) And yet, here we are for a mere few dollars a day able to talk with the world. Score one point for the positive value of electronic communications. Do you have another positive? or how about a negative?
