I'm observing the people here in our community clubhouse, all with their tabs and laptaps; and I only can conclude that they are surfing the net as I do.

A couple by the corner near the main entrance chats and smiles peering into the tab on top of the table. It seems they're checking out a good site or perhaps is watching a good video. A lady at the table by my left side has an ear phone and is speaking by herself intensely looking at her laptap screen, with a facial expression that of someone engaged in a serious conversation. As I am writing now, they seem not to notice me.

I wonder whether the internet captures these realities in our lives as we share and communicate with other netizens. It is quite amazing that the emotions are expressed through the connection already available through this technology. It doesn't only allows us to be with people so far from us, but also connects us in the same space and time. Everything to be as it happens, when we like it.

A lad, maybe about 16 years old now, has just sat across the hall and plays a loud Gotye song. Sets a mini speaker and slightly moves his head to the beat and the refrain. Music has evolved to video and many kinds of format, creating for us numerous ways to enjoy.

The capability to connect transformed the way are entertained. It provided us a new way of living. The internet made us all converge in one place, creating an avenue of people, events, and shared creations. And just by looking at these people now, I know they are with me in this cyber world.
