With presence of the internet and people are making friends and meeting people from different race, and regions of the world. People now go online to ask for advice from people and guide and leaving out the traditional meeting of people who see. I wonder among people offline and online, who are more helpful and who can give a lasting solution to problems and quest?

On my personal opinion, it would depend on what is the problem all about. There are problems that we don't need to go online and solicit help from online friends because our friends around us can already help us solve this problem. We have this practice here in our country that any problem within the community should be solved within if possible. This is true with problems arising from the barangays, the smallest unit in the local government. We would only solicit the help of higher government if the problem can not be solved despite all the efforts. However, with issues or problem regarding online activity, I know that my online friends would be of great help. Both online and offline friends are reliable it only depends on the situation.

Hello Chikezie, Well, I would say that it is FRIENDS who are helpful and they can be both online and offline. It depends who can help you in which matter. When I have to find out something about online work or online modes of payment or about some website information I ask my online friends because I know they can guide me better. But when it is something about my personal or family matter I ask friends who know about my family stuff. Also I feel that making friends across the globe has given new dimension to people's perspective in all fields.
