Digital Self
When it comes to computers and stuff online, I'm not very handy. Most people spend a ton of hours a day on digital communities, and internet. I truely dont spend that much time on the computer, and I'm only apart of one or two digital communities and networks. I dont shop online or pay my bills online, but i do connect with my friends on facebook all the time. It makes it easy to communicate with people you are friends with, but dont get to see that much. I think our digital selves are lazy, and dont make people think as much. Therefore the socially awakard people in real life, are very social on the computer. And it makes it seem like they are someone they arent.

I agree with the fact that most peoples digital lives are very lazy. As you said this tends to lend to the fact that most socially awkward people can use the computer in a way that portrays them as something their not. I like the fact that you don't spend hours and hours on the computer, because a lot of kids our age do.
