#684 "I'm more than just a picture"..


We are very visual creatures. A large percentage of the human brain dedicates itself to visual processing. If we think about our love of social media, how we ‘like, share, and listen-watch funny grabs – cartoons and stories. We do this because of our love of images. Images are able to grab our attention easily, we are immediately drawn to them. Think about this blog, for example: did you look at the words first, or the image?
We process images at an alarming speed. When we see a picture, we analyse it within a very short snippet of time, knowing the meaning and scenario within it immediately. The human brain is able to recognise a familiar object within 100 milliseconds. People tend to recognise familiar faces within 380 milliseconds, which is pretty impressive.
It’s not news that we love to talk about ourselves. We devote about 30–40% of all speech to talking about others or ourselves. But online that number jumps to about 80% of social media posts. Why? Talking face-to-face is messy and emotionally involved–we don’t have time to think about what to say, we have to read facial cues and body language.

The one thing we have to remember with social media, is that we are a person behind the story, the face and this is the same in Secondlife. We talk about ourselves on Social Media, but when have you lately said hello to the people that you follow, the friends on your SL list, the people that watch your every moves on Facebook.. ? ...Remember, they can swear, can joke,  say what's on their mind, They drink,..They could be a daughter, or a sister, 
Sometimes it's hard for them to show, 

Remember, they are more than just a pretty face...
