As it turns out...
The internet has many wonders to behold. It's like a toy that keeps getting better the more you play with it. Like Transformers, or better yet, Legos. You can construct things on the internet however you want to reflect your own unique personality. I remember when I first started using the web, I imagined it as a big white space... no finite walls, ceiling or floor. There were doors, there were unique people to talk to, and the doors led to other spaces with other people.
In a way, we all want our own white space that we can do whatever we want with it. LiveJournal. MySpace. Vox. We can put our colors up and let our flag blow in the wind. And with the doors present, we can invite other people to see who we are and what we do by looking at what we have done with this "white space".
Really though, we are actual, breathing, carbon life-forms and our space is not white, but coverd in the muck and grime of the centuries, placed there by our ancestors. Perhaps why this white space is so appealing. Our own blank world that we can start ourselves.
That is all....

This entry is like a work of art about the internet. It should be cleverly titled "The Internet," if you ask me. =p
I totally agree.
excellent metaphor
