The web is a world of strangers that you seek with the same opinions as you hold.

In the world, you don't talk to strangers because they, most probably, hold different opinions.

So the web is only a community by ignorance.

hmmmmm...a community by ignorance?

Interesting. I highly doubt the reason that we are less likely to approach strangers in the meatspace is that we are afraid of differing opinions. Fear of the other, fear of rejection, and other irrational fears may contribute. Socialization is a big factor.

Online, though, we can speak up (and even be anonymous like the previous commenter) and reach out without as many hangups. The webspace is a good medium for putting oneself out there - we've been socialized differently online.

One of my favourite lines by David is:

"We're writing ourselves into history, one blog post at a time."

It's really what drove the importance of social software home to me.

Thanks for pointing to this.

In real life, I don't think it's so much that we're suspicious of strangers as it is that we're worried about being embarrassed or rejected. It stems from the broadcast, asynchronous communication of the web versus the direct, synchronous communication of daily life. If I ask a question in a newsgroup, chances are the only people who want to help will respond, and others will keep quiet. Even if there's no answer at all, I generally don't feel ashamed; I can rationalize it a dozen different ways. But if I were to walk up to someone on the street, or in a store, or at a party, I would have to brace myself for rejection of all sorts, silence being the worst.

I think it's more accurate to liken conversations on the web to graffiti on a bathroom wall than to face-to-face discussions with strangers.
