As of yet though, there is no substitution for hanging out in person. There aren't many things I would enjoy more than being able to have a big Hubski party with all of us in attendance. -Someday.... someday. Nice piece Cadell, thanks for the "shout out". I do think we need to change our prejudice against friendships made and sustained online.When social networks emerged they functioned to connect us with people we already knew in real life. These networks may have provided the illusion that we were being more social, but in reality they were simply providing us with a stage to focus on ourselves in the presence of other people.
This is spot on. I interact with a few people on Hubski that I knew prior to joining, mk, sounds_sound and scrimetime but beyond that the people that I converse with are new to me. You are an example of someone that I am collaborating with, so is steve and although I never knew you guys prior to Hubski, I would now count you amongst my friends.
