Life in bits and bytes

With so much of technology and advancements..how much of digitalization has creeped into our lives???Most of us spend most of our time before laptops reading or sending information in byte series of 0s and 1s. I feel every part of our life is becoming so virtual with a major part being spend on the internet and with the increased use of electronic gadgets like mobile phones,television and the like.

People have already started thinking about virtual shopping, virtual teams, virtual learning systems,virtual games etc and some of them already in place. Why think only about virtual good?? There is of course the "virtual evil" or the digitalized world of evil.

Well what made me think of the digital evil??Have'nt we all heard of kidnaps and hijacks..yess...we have... but those where of airlines and humans but...hijacking a website??...well its not very new that a website is being hacked into...What got me into writing about this is the recent hacking into software giant TCS' website...??Hearing of cyber crimes, identity thefts and who knows what we are yet to witness??

Imagine the amount of information,emotion or to be more general ,life that the two digits 0 and 1 encompasses.
