The screen and the internet does seem to have a way of influence communication. When you're so familiar with someone behind the screen, the fear arises if such rapport will continue face to face. And that the screen is so capable of hiding emotions, sometimes you wonder what the other side is actually feeling. Which isn't the most beneficial for building friendship. How real is a bond established behind a screen? How do we move past this barrier and continue this rapport face to face?

Yknow, when you're a kid, you often wonder about what superpowers you would like to have. Kids often say, "to fly!" or "superhuman strength" or keblahkeblah as most of your Marvel heros would have. The pervy ones would say "invisibility", but thats leave them to it. As we mature we rarely indulge in such fantasies, either because we've matured, maybe we lost that innocent, creative, kiddish side of ours or maybe we realise that none of these superpowers are actually very useful.

But what kind of superpower would you have? Maybe people now might tell, "ohoh stock market prediction". Perhaps the most useful one nowadays, is mind reading. Hurhur.
