In cyberspace identity is no longer necessarily bound by body or location; cyberspace has the democratic potential to render visible markers, such as race and gender, obsolete. With anonymity one of many possibilities, one's identity becomes an open-ended choice that complicates the types of relationship that are formed online. Although the possibilities of a virtual realm seem limitless, in many ways cyberspace remains intrinsically tied to real places. To ease the gap between the real and the virtual, even the language used to describe Internet interactions (e.g., communities) and online destinations (e.g., chat rooms and forums) indicates that cyberspace is still fundamentally rooted in real-place dynamics
