Abstract

The word "stranger" carries negative connotations in society, especially when associated with the Internet. Parents are lectured by authorities to monitor their children's use of chat rooms. E-mail filters remove millions of unwanted and sometimes grotesque advertisements from strangers looking to make a quick buck every day. People are told to be wary of other people on networking sites. Even in the physical world, strangers are subjected to a keener eye and skepticism from those around them. But if you meet a stranger in a setting not defined by 1's and 0's, at least you can pin a face on his identity, a sense of security that cannot be attained online. Aside from societal worries, how can the online stranger overcome his bad rap when the word "strange" is the root of his name, suggesting "weird" and "foreign"? Who exactly is this dark, obscure person we're told to stay away from?
