The 'Third Life'

I am sure you heard of 'second life' ( a friend told me recently that real estate in this world too crashed due to global recession !!!)

Increasingly I am finding people in a 'third life' . I also see people falling between the first,second and third lives.

Let me explain.

what I call the third life is the one we live on the mobile network (the second life is on the web). The blackberry,mobile web,audio conferences, calls around world time zones,mobile office,mobile twitter make this third life taking 40 -50% of your first life.

How do you co-live in this third life, in which you only hear or read others but almost NEVER see them! This third life happens alongside the first or even second making your responses even more tricky!

I also see people stuck in the first life, without even realising that the world has moved on to second and third. They are uncomfortable if they don't see themselves in a physical office or in a physical home with others.

I see others seeing this as an opportunity to live two or three lives in one lifetime !
