Where Have You been?

I am truly sorry for my lapse in tending to this blog. I'm going to be changing some things to make it easier for me to post on a regular basis.

To what's happening now. I am having the most incredible experience with YouTube and related interactive sites. I am truly a person that can say, "YouTube changed my life." Could I live without it? Yes. Do I want to? No. I tend to look at the positive things.

I don't assume another personality on YouTube or any other interactive site. I made a friend on YouTube. Along with that comes messages on Twitter, Facebook and Skype. Because YouTube includes video and audio you have better understanding of who that person really is. So when we had our first audio chat (which I seldom do) the conversation was as if we had been friends for years. Absolutely amazing. I credit it with it being a nice fit in personalities, but also the familiarity of YouTube.

Gatherings are much the same. Through familiarity with videos, most there already have been informally introduced by their videos. Yes, there are creeps. But they are found out and quickly dismissed. I can't help but feel that the world is a smaller and better place because of this new interaction and relationship we have all developed.
