ADDICTIVE WEB 2.0 FEATURES: LOSING CONTACT FROM PHYSICAL WORLD
INTRODUCTION
There are games out there that kids and adults play online that would fit right into the Communities and Web 2.0 stream; now these games can be used for entertainment type use but when kids and adults start to repetitively play these games on daily basis it starts to grow from being a fun activity to an addictive activity. Games like “Massive Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games” (MMORPG) can take valuable time and life away from these gamers who eventually stop seeing the real side of the physical world. It’s not the actual game that becomes addictive it’s the tools that are provided within the games platform that keeps you attached but as technology is getting better people are tending to use the online tools provided rather then using their given skills in a real life environment.
