I think my internet personality is basically the same as my real-life personality, except perhaps a little less restrained. I know there are things that I talk about on TFP that I would definitely not be comfortable discussing in front of complete strangers, but would only share with my closest friends. I think the anonymity of the internet makes it a little easier to share personal things about one's self without fear of ridicule.
