Loneliness (Part II) and Anonymity (Part V)

Well a long long time ago, in the pre-historic age, before the advent of Blogs, we definitely had people who fit the bill as “Lonely” and “Anonymous” and all possible combinations of the two. All these so-called misfits might have spent their time picking up rice at a church were a wedding has been or writing sermons on walls, no more, now these folks can still “Anonymous”, but not “Lonely”.

It comes down to the definition of the baseline for normal social interaction. If we accept both “Rocke adda mara” and “Hanging around in a pub” as norms then I am sure “Hanging around in cyberspace” also would also satisfy it. Hence anyone who blogs can still be labeled as anonymous but definitely not as lonely.

No more lonely nights,
Never be another,
No more lonely nights
You're my guiding light,
Day or night I'm always there
– Paul McCartney
