Internet Anonymity

My rarely commenting friend sent me another fascinating article, this time about how the elusive anonymity of the Internet that we cloak ourselves in leads us to be more open, in many ways, than we would be face-to-face. This article explains how this behavior can be traced to the difference in brain functioning (which I would desperately love to study in more depth, maybe one day) between a face-to-face encounter and an online, faceless one. Check out the article.
