Like Julie, I do care and I care about some more than others because of meeting in person and/or regular conversations via IM, phone or other mechanisms. While online communications can feel impersonal and make us wonder if we're just chatting with a script, it doesn't have to be so if we choose to not let it be so. By reminding ourselves that there is a human behind that other avatar who we talk to and that they go through a variety of daily ups and downs, to me, keeps the personal alive.
