With the use of social networking platforms , we call ourselves totally transparent, express ourselves overtly to the world being a anonymous yet a known identity. Can we call this transparency?? Read on !!
We spit out whatever we feel and think, good or bad, seductive or repellent, funny or irritating. Here we live in all together 2 different worlds.
We have 2 identities within us, a virtual and a real one. As i say 1 is "the real one" but I actually wonder which is real me. The virtual one consists my g talk,whats app, Facebook, twitter, blog, LinkedIn, Google+. (Yes the growing no.s of these also symbolize that I am a famous one in the virtual world. I have a family,friends,acquainted friends too.)
After being in both the worlds for these many years, I have realized that both the worlds do not connect to each other in many senses. Few of the people in each world are not part of my other world at all, does that mean they know only half of me ? Does that mean that I am a "dual personality person" ? Does that mean that they will never meet like my white and black shades or I will be in the ocean of the shade of grey knowing only things I want to tell them. Is this called transparency? Its true that we have privacy settings in every social platform so as to say.
Yeas I am into this deep ocean of who is part of my which world and to whom I have shared what in each of my worlds.
Yes finally I am going to update this to all the social networking sites I am using.
