Crop Circles and the Internet

I have always wondered if aliens have ever used yahoo or google or something and looked at some of the sites out there to research us. Of course, these are not the sort of aliens that had an altercation with Predator (as in “Alien vs. Predator”), but rather the friendlier version (such as Filipinos like us invading the earthly continents). If these extraterrestrials were really that interested, the internet is the best way to access information. Maybe that’s how they found out about us. Or maybe not. I can’t understand how they could possibly receive a S-MAIL or something (S for SETI), then reply to it. If aliens do exist (which I’m sure most of us believe that they do), I’m certain they have some sort of internet of their own that is certainly more advanced. They must have also checked blogs to find out what we think about them.

On the other hand, it is possible that our language is not really universal. This would make “crop circles” a more reasonable means of communication. These patterns, although quite artistic, are hard to explain and their meaning, if there is any, could be understood only if streamed through the uuu (universally understood uttering), of which our www is simply a hybrid of. For the benefit of those who think crop circles are nonsense, well, it has been found that in the soil of some crop circles, the crops were bent and that small particles of magnetic iron which were found inside the circles were more than those found outside the circle? The soil inside the circle differs from the soil outside in such a way that the soil which is found inside the circle is more fertile than the one which is outside. All crop circles that have been located are perfect. Where do they (whether humans or aliens) get time to make these circles? In any event, these are similar to our programming zeros and ones, making crop circles tantamount to our internet language.
Considering the level of technology that we have as compared with other intelligent life forms in the universe, there is very good possibility of having more intelligent extraterrestrial life than ours. This is based on the astronomical calculation that our own Milky Way Galaxy is 15 billion years old, and the fact that it took 5 billion years to evolve from single-celled ocean creatures to where we are today in our evolution. Yet, despite this long history, we have had modern technology only in the last 100 years. Communication may exist in ways believed not possible, such as through our thoughts or dreams or silent signals sent to sleeping people. Not even the internet.
For those familiar with the July 1947 Roswell crash of a UFO, computer technology was reverse engineered from computer chips found at the crash site. This would mean that the great earthlings (Americans?) learned computer technology from the aliens. Is it probable that the aliens may be monitoring everything we do on the Internet? I won’t doubt it.
The advanced aliens would certainly have the technology to monitor the Internet or communicate by e-mail, or post on their own blog site. But whether or not they would is anyone's guess. How we can invite them to blog is something we can all think about. But if an alien posts a comment on this blog, I would dare not say anything further.
