There are millions of online communities, social network, interest groups, media sharing sites, you name it. That is to say nothing about all the sub-networks within massive giants like Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, et al. So many of these communities exist that one must wonder if there is a need for any new ones? Or, if having so many virtual networks is a good thing? What is this force that makes people want to join them and engage in discussions, sharing, communication? Wouldn't it be better for humans, in general, to simply do more gardening, read books, play ball-games and meditate?
