Understanding who we are, online? offline? onlife!

Click on the title and you will be sent to a short, insightful piece on interpersonal perception (part of the wider phenomenon of interpersonal relationship), that is, how we go about grasping each others' profiles, identities and personalities online (including ours'), and what the constants and variables are that make a difference in this process. Absolutely worth reading.

A quick comment on aside: many of the points made are applicable to our life offline as well, and this is not surprising, if the threshold between the two is becoming increasingly porous. Ultimately, it will be onlife interpersonal relationship that will matter. When you apply for a job, don't forget to update your Facebook files.
