Socialomania, Socialolism and Causes

This is just cool! My notice on new Internet addiction – socialolism has become some popularity in Russian Internet but with different name. They call it Socialomania (социаломания). This sound also not bad, an is proved to be an official synonym for socialolism.socialolism.gif

I red some comments on socialomania and must say that didn’t expect that, so many people do agree with me in the point that some kind of addiction exist with that all web 2.0 stuff and said that they have at least some of the defined symptoms. Thought Socilaolism article had also humorous site. So do not take is for ultimate truth. ;) However web2.0 consumes time.

Dear reader did you also notice how many time consumes social-networking?

Addicted or not why it is so? Why do we spend so much time in social networks? I think modern people have not much time to spend it with living friends (which is not so good). This lies almost in the fact that doing something with people directly require synchronization of all participants. Social networking allows you to stay in touch asynchronously, it allows you to do your “social doing” when you have time, at least it should. But as we see this happens it time when you have to do other things and work, in effect we the social doing over internet may degrade to socialolism or socialomania or whatever you call it.
