Okay, that may all seem rather random, but it all is interconnected and related in some way shape or form. Because we all know that the internet is now really integrated into our lives one way or another. There’s Facebook for stalking and whatnot and befriending, and there’s Flickr for trolling through pictures, and so much more. But now the internet is making it easier and easier for people to get to know each other, and its ALL free. Yep, the new thing, at least in the tech world, is a place where you can learn all about.me. Yep About Dot Me, or about.me, is a simple little internet tool that allows you to put up all your information, your websites Twitter, Facebook, whatnot, all in one convenient and cool little profile. And the best part, its easy to remember, and its super simple.
I was so interested in this, I signed up for the beta, which its still in, and so unfortunately its by invitation only. But now, you can learn everything you want about a person without having to be their Facebook friend, considering this actually becomes popular. And why wouldn’t it? Its just about.me/(insert your name here). Either we’re becoming way too open with our information and our personal lives, or we just love to talk about ourselves. Still, its perfect for dates, if you want to learn more about the person you’re going out with, why not check out their about.me site? It’ll give you a general idea of who you’re dating and what you’ore getting yourself into. Either way, I’m in, and you can see an example of what I’m talking about here: about.me/me
As if social networks like Twitter and Facebook weren’t enough, now there’s another website that seems to be getting buzz. VYou, is a place where people can connect to anyone, and instead of just static pictures or lines of written information, you get a face. A moving talking face. Yep, VYou allows people to answer questions with short video clips, kind of like YouTube, but more personal. Because the more you ask questions and the more these people answer, it’ll soon be like you’re having a conversation with a virtual person, but they’re real. That’s pretty creepy isn’t it? I mean, you find yourself flirting with someone on a site like this, and they can, after awhile flirt or reject you. Its something that needs to be seen to believe, but personally, I don’t get the flirting or the kinds of questions being asked, especially of the women.
See, this site is kind of female dominant. I think webcams and women are becoming more and more linked everyday. And the kinds of questions men ask, and I’m assuming they’re guys because I can’t imagine a girl asking those things, but its kind of sad. Grown men asking if they’ll show their panties, or whatnot. What do people expect to get out of these exchanges? Are we so horny and so sexually depraved we’ll just say whatever raunchy thought that comes to our heads and hope it sticks? Well, for an idea of how this VYou thing works, and maybe you’d want to check it out, click here…its just an example. *cough* VYou.com/wizard
Okay, time to talk about sex. I know that’s what most people are interested in, and though physical sex may not be at your disposal at the moment, virtual sex is. As I mentioned before, webcams and women are almost things that go hand in hand, and you may have heard me talk about it on the podcast, but there are webcam sites out there dedicated to the ever present libido of men. And well, I guess that’s the new age of sex. Its all “virtual”. You talk to a real girl, you spend money on this girl, and they do sex stuff for you to get off. What happened to porn? Its free all over the internet, and hell, comprises 99% of the internet. (Yes, exaggeration), but why is that the new “it” thing?
Well, okay, I guess I get it. There are willing women in front of you, doing the things you ask for, for a fee, and you get to have things you probably don’t get in the relationship you’re in now or because you’re not dating or hooking up or getting laid. They’ll be your anything, and men love it. Some men even become friends or fall in love or whatever on these places because the women are so accessable and doing the things you want. They become the embodiment of your fantasies, and its all sex. Soon, it’ll be taken to the next level with actual devices attached to your body to simulate the whole sex thing.
There is a fine line nowadays when it comes to sex and relationships. More and more men are having a hard time differentiating between the two. Its evident in social networking sites, webcam sites, and personal dating sites. As we move into this digital age where things become more and more accessible, I feel we men will be thinking less with our heads, and more with our…heads. You get what I mean. And women will continue to evolve, understand that, rule us, and take all our money. Haha. Which for some people, doesn’t seem like such a bad idea.
