One of the challenges of communicating in cyberspace is that we see the written word without the accompaniment of body language. While this is also true in regards to printed media, it presents a unique challenge when one is writing on a "social network". By this I mean we are in a situation where we can respond to one another at a level which generally is not possible when we are the readers of books, newspaper or magazine readers. Writing, reading and responding to blogs and comments is more like having a conversation but lacking the physical cues which we are wired to read.
