One thing that I find interesting is using the cover of the internet to try on different personalities. Or perhaps different aspects of my own personality.
Who says we need to be "ourselves" online (or otherwise)? In my experience, online forums have given me a chance to try on different masks and play with different feelings.
It's fun to sometimes be young, old, male, female, asshole, nice guy, fat headed idiot, and arrogant know-it-all.
For me it seems to have useful possibilities as a training ground before heading for the real thing. Out there.
