C
Life has changed for millions of young
people across the world who now make friends online. Whether you use chat
rooms, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are a member of this group.
“I don’t often talk with my
parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ,” said Fox’s
Shadow, the online name used by a girl student in China. “Most of my classmates
use QQ after school.”
QQ is the biggest messaging
service in China.
A record from Tencent, the company which develops QQ, shows that 4 million
people used it one Saturday night in October.
And probably Fox’s Shadow
was one of them. “I log in (登录) on Friday nights, and Saturday or Sunday when I feel everything
around me boring. I usually spend about 10 hours chatting online every week,”she
said. “But I never talk with strangers, especially boys or men.” Even though she
likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online. “You
don’t know who you are talking to. You should always be careful about whom you
believe online.”
Many people would like to
meet off-line when they feel they have got to know someone very well. Fox’s
Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face. It was a girl who was a
football fan like herself and they went to a football match together.
A 16-year-old Beijing boy named Simon
online dislikes QQ users. “I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people
were talking about foolish things , ”he said. Now he chats online in English,
using MSN. “I want to learn more about foreign cultures.”But he spends little
time chatting on QQ as he sees it as a waste of time and money.
“If you are really addicted
to it, sometimes you can’t give your mind to your lessons,” he said. “And
friends in your real life are always more important than those so called
friends you meet online.”
