TechCrunch has a post referring to a study that has found out that blogging is good for one’s social life.
Wow! What a finding! There is about as much new knowledge in this finding as there in saying that the Pope has a lot of friends who practise Christianity.

Dude, everything need not be as trivial as you imagine it to be.
No, I do not mean to undermine the study, because, being an MIS student myself, I know how difficult it is to construct studies of this nature.
My reasoning was based on the assumption that that bloggers can be thought of as being of a slightly higher level of intelligence (not just IQ) than the general crowd. If that is true, then blogosphere as a support community would, in most cases, be positive.
I don’t see a straight connection for other online social networks though.
Well, I read your post again and the tone does seem undermining now too.
If it was not, then what was the point? That you can intuitively see the results of a study?
PS: I do not mean to be caustic!
Thanks. I understand.
Yes, I could see the results intuitively. In fact, I believe that the study would have been conducted to verify such an intuition.
