Labby - there's a whole body of research and thought about the 'cyber-self'....
I'd love to tell you more, but I can't. I'm more of an activist/pragmantist than a reflector/theorist
http://www.campaign-for-learning.org.uk/aboutyourlearning/whatlearning.htm , and I accidently ended up studying in a philiosophy department. Which didn't suit me at all
But several people there were working on this idea of a cyber-self, but since they were philosophers and more reflectors and theorists than I was, they couldn't really explain it to me in a way I could get my head around... (which happened a lot there...
)
I now work for an organisation that loves models and theories and loves to make me do tests. But I think they have begun to realise that it's a waste of their time and mine, since I ignore whatever it is that it is telling me I am and get on with being me anyway.
Oh, and I'm a mixture of a kinesthetic and visual learner, a plant and an monitor evaluator (

But that might change...
