Conclusion

So how does your CyberBODY look? Is it what you expected it to look
like? Is it what you think others see you as? Do comuters see you this
way? Our world is merging more and more with the new world of
Cyberspace, and we need to know how we are viewed in this new world.
We also need to relize what this new world holds for us has humans.
Technology creeps more into our lives every day, and we need to be aware
