The oddities of us
-
As geeks we are known for being somewhat anti-social, introverted, etc? It is amusing then to look at the Message Boards and see that the Lounge has by far the highest number of posts, followed by C++ (not even half the total number of Lounge posts), which is followed by the Soapbox. In comparison, the others can't compete at all (although my personal favourites are the Web Development and SQL / ADO boards). So is it perhaps rather the old case of "Birds of a feather flock together" and enjoy socialising in a place where we can also switch to dev message boards and discuss dev/tech issues? Perhaps we would be a lot more sociable if there were more geeky people around us in daily life (I guess living around the Redmond area would be like this)? What are your thoughts on this? It would be interesting as well to know what days of the week we post most on. Today is Friday :jig: , so does that mean we will all be more relaxed and enjoying CP time more, or trying desperately to finish off the week's work with little time for CP leisure(read "online research" ;P )?
I knew it would end badly when I first met Chris in a Canberra alleyway and he said 'try some-it won't hurt you'... -Christian Graus on Code Project outages His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a tumble dryer.

Mostly, we are straight shooters with little concern for how to say things, but more concern over what is said.

I think the anonymity of online discussions allows us great freedoms which we normally do not feel in "real" social situations. I am far more open and free online than in real life. People do not judge me based on my looks (or lack thereof), my body language, my voice, what I wear etc. They judge me on what I say which comes from what I think. I am also not a good deal more sociable when in the company of fellow geeks in the real world, because the same physical attributes are being judged even by them.

Megan Forbes wrote: Although, I always felt that people who spent loads of time in chat rooms were really sad Well then call me sad :) I spent plenty of time in chat rooms a few years ago (chat rooms have now been replaced by IM and the CP forums but the end result is the same really) and had many good conversations, a lot better than you would get from trying to talk in a pub/bar/club which according to most people is not a sad pasttime. Go figure. Obviously there was plenty of waffle, prattle and rubbish to. But just sit and listen to what most people talk about in "real" life and you will see it is mostly waffle, prattle and rubbish too. The only difference is the environment and somehow in pop-cultures eyes that makes "real" life conversations automatically good and online conversations automatically sad and only for loosers. Go figure. Frankly the only time I get to have good conversations with people in real life is my monthly BBC (Bohemian Book Club) evening. The rest of the time it is either dev. talk with co-workers or useless prattle with family and friends. You know, latest movies, fashion, whats on TV, what to eat, who is sleeping with who etc. In fact it is often quite difficult to initiate a deep discussion with people in real life, I always end up feeling self concious that they don't want to make the effort of thinking. Anyway. To me the bottom line is that we should not make distinctions between an online discussion or a "real life" discussion. It is what was discussed, who we learnt more about and conclusions reached that are the important bits. Online is just a medium, like air is a medium for real life conversations.

The internet is just a medium for our business - yes, it is successfully done by other firms with more employees and no developers. Paul Watson wrote: spent plenty of time in chat rooms a few years ago Perhaps I am biased - I have yet to come across a chat room that doesn't at some point degenerate to sex - except for that on Africam (spotted a giraffe on the Vuyatela cam yesterday - damn, I need to get home! :-O ). I do love IM - but then at least I can choose who I allow to see me online. That ISP I used to work for had this 60+ year old client who was really into lesbian chatrooms. Don't get me wrong- what she wants to do with her connection to the outside world (she was so obese that she couldn't leave her bedroom) is her business. But when she keeps breaking her connection purposefully to get me into her *bedroom sitting in front of her pc, with her on the bed behind me, her giant paw on my shoulder telling me how beautiful I am, that my (then) fiance and I should come and stay over some nights, etc ,etc, it really gets a little too much. Anyway, that just pushed my idea of people who live in chatrooms over the limit I guess, so that now I am more prejudiced about it than I should be. :) * Before you say anything, let me just point out a couple of sad truths - a)my boss thought it was hilarious, b)there was no male to go in my place except him and he was too lazy, c)I had the only job in Nelspruit in web dev, and wasn't going to give up getting the experience over this one client.

Online is just a medium, like air is a medium for real life conversations. I totally agree. I really make no distinction as to whether forums and chat rooms are for cool people or not. It's a great way to make friends with people who it would have been otherwise impossible to meet. Of course, my real life conversations are usually a bit more serious (okay, maybe they're wacky too). I really enjoy going to the college pub and hanging out with friends but I'd say I enjoy posting on CP just as much (and plus, lightweights like myself don't get wasted).
