The internet has become an extension of the human body and humans are still adapting to it.
Is there any book that explores the aspect of meeting people through the internet and then hooking up with them in the age when humanity is only just adapting to its extended neural network?

Very intriguing concept. Japan always surprises. Have you read any?

The other downturns can be expected but I am actually surprised at the rapid decline of meeting through friends.

No but I've heard of them. I find them gimmicky and bound to age very poorly as cellphone technology advances.

It's funny how met in college and met in the workplace have declined so much. You can thank Feminists for sterilizing these places through their insanity and aggression for this.

Would love a novel about a couple who met each other in the 80s over the internet.
