Online participation as an indicator of prosperity


What do you think?

Research indicates that people who comment on blogs and actively participate in online communities are more likely to be self-confident, well-adjusted and intelligent and have a more satisfying life than people who don’t.

Those who regularly read and comment on blogs are 10 times more likely to be successful in business, drive nice cars and have a fulfilling family life than “lurkers” who don’t.

Ok, I admit it; I made that up.  But it makes sense, doesn’t it?  Generally,  people who are open and participative tend to become more involved in social activities that increase their sense of connectedness, and that community involvement in turn stimulates their personal development.

I’ve found that doing is a lot more satisfying than observing in almost every facet of life.
