In this day of cellular phones, blackberries, and burn out, it is important to take time to make connections with others. We may not have time to spare to socialize but certainly we can turn all of this new technology into an advantage. Why not view the internet as a way to facilitate new connections and create a virtual community? We see teenagers using instant messaging and chat rooms to create new friendships, can’t we do the same?
In fact, I think it is important that we do. Not only so that we are prepared and aware when our children venture out into the virtual world but also because statistics show that a huge percentage of Canadian women are online..what a great way to connect with women in your community!
That is why we created our Urbanmoms Message Forums . Use these boards to ask questions of other moms, sell or buy items, find local resources, and get to know other women in your community. The possibilities are endless!
