A few days ago I put a question forward to find out whether, the internet was the only means of a virtual community, or can one speak on the phone or send a text be the same?Well it took me some time to think about this particular issue, but I think I have come up with a conclusion. I think there are various interpretations, one being that we need to realise that a virtual community is a meeting place, but in a non-physical environment. New need to also take into account that a non-physical environment doesn’t only mean the internet, by just tuning into the radio instantly puts you in a virtual community. The big difference between the real and the virtual is that the virtual community is not geographically limited.
