Ps. One more thing =)
When I was a teenager, internet was not yet around. And there were no mobile phones. We used computers and land-line phones to dial up a forum-like softwares run by private persons. Sami was running one of those, and that was how we made friends. And I so do remember that when I started visiting Sami's virtual community, in the beginning I was using a different alias depending on what topic I was discussing. I thought that it is a nice idea - I have multiple roles, multiple alter egos, instead of trying to capture all of my personality under one single name and description. But then Sami and the others felt somewhat uneasy with that - saying that it would be more nice for them if they always knew with who they are talking with. I was thinking about it, and finally settled for using the same name constantly, just to make a better connection with the others.
But I'm not here to say you should do the same. I just wanted to share this personal story, thinking that maybe you find something to relate to. Or, in other words; inside each of us there is just a tiny little ordinary human being =)
