Talking to people on aim is alright, BUT to be more well-rounded and keep your social skills from turning into something truly pitiful, you'll have to get out sometime. Do little things to engage other people in conversation, just to see how they respond. Be polite to a stranger and give them a compliment....a decent one.

If you're standing in line at the Walmart, and the cashier has a nice smile. Tell her/him. Just say "you have a nice smile..." and leave it at that. When they say thank you, say "your welcome." get your things, and leave.

Little interactions like that will keep you socially aware of others and more approachable. It's the human condition to be social, so don't shy away from that. You don't have to be the "life of the party" but you should atleast be comfortable to be around...

So, get out there...compliment people. Ask a stranger for directions (even if you know where you are going...), go to Barnes&Noble and ask a stranger if they have a book to recommend....ANYTHING. Just be a part of the world and let other people know your interests/hobbies face-to-face...they'll appreciate it! And who knows?...you might become friends with them.

when your eyes start hurting and your head starts buzzing. get off hte net and go get a life :)

I didn't know there was a limit, or 'too much' time alone. If there is, then I am guilty of it. Introversion and extroversion play a part n whether you would simply rather spend this time by yourself. If you aren't happy, then you should change it. I am introverted and am not addicted to the computer, but do spend a lot of time on it. I just like that though, nothign wrong with it if it isn't interfering with anything right?

Welcome to the 21st century, the computer is just another devise we use to socialize, and expand our minds.
If you are enjoying yourself, and communicating with others I see no problem.
In all sincerity, I believe this instrument is going to allow the next generation to grow much closer, and come to the understanding that all of use on this planet, want and can create a new world, and one that is of benefit to all of mankind. Imagine, Thank you John Lennon
