Anonymity (Part II) & Voyeurs (Part I)

What is it about the internet that makes people divulge intimate details of their life to total strangers?

What is it about the internet that makes people want to read those obscure tidbits from someone else’s life?

Does everyone have a little voyeur inside them waiting to break free? Has the internet broken an invisible barrier?

Are we reveling because we can rummage through other people’s dirty laundry while still maintaining the capability to switch it off anytime or are we ecstatic that we can share our darkest deepest secrets without fear of social stigma or retribution?

Have we all become Anonymous Voyeurs?

I get the drift. "Suddenly, nothing happened"

Welcome to the real (?) world, Wowbagger.

show me a blog-addict and I'll show you what happens when a voyeur meets an exhibitionist
Or if you think of the world as a global village, this is the village well or the shade of the oldest tree; and as the evening draws we all indulge in a bit of Human Nature :)
