Couple-Surfing: ‘Love Me, Love My Blog’

CNN.com:

A man and a woman sit side by side in a New York cafe, drinking beer, sharing food, and not saying a word. Instead of chatting, they are typing on a laptop about the tunes played through a shared iPod.

As the Internet evolves — with its Webcams, iPods, Instant Messaging, broadband, Wi-Fi and blogs — its image as a relationship-wrecker is changing.

Now a sociable habit is emerging among the Netorati: couple-surfing.

Coined by bloggers responding to a column on the online version of “Wired” magazine, couple-surfing describes “netaholics” or “infomaniacs” who surf alongside each other, doing together what used to be seen as a solitary activity.

    Hi, my name’s Allison Quick, I’m writing a story on couple-surfing for Drake University’s online magazine. I was wondering if you had any of the contact information for the writer of this story, Sara Ledwith? If you could e-mail me back at amq001@drake.edu that would be great. Thank you!
