PSYCHOLOGY OF CYBERSPACE

    Stereotype? I don't think so...

    Hello:

    Stereotype? Not, I don't think so. Of course stereotypes do exist. But even all these funny lists with "signs of the Internet addiction" aren't born on empty place. I know such people. I know some such persons IRL (In Real Life); I've seen homes of true Internet addicts... and it is something strange from a first glance... yes, I've seen these really empty flats, poor food in ice-box, only some chairs and one table with a computer in the centre of room and mountains of floppy-disks and CD-ROM disks around... The television set and telephone doesn't work... sad picture. Yes, this is a generalization; but I've seen some such people and their homes (and their lifestyle); and, I know about other such persons from my friends... It's real... so I try to understand, - why...
