Distances and social networking

Hello earthlings!

The whole day of Saturday has been spent on revising, studying and doing tonnes of exercises. The rest is Tawakkaltualallah.

Most of the time, I can't wait to finish my degree, get a job, settled down, and fly somewhere to further studies (you know, being the current economy situation now, most of us are adviseable to further studies to a higher level). I can't wait to globe trotting, taking pictures from everwhere around the world and learning different cultures and heritages everyday. Let's hope that dreams of mine will come true. InsyaAllah. Amin.

All right. Let's talk a bit on long-distance communication now. Having friends scattered all around the globe (oh yeah, I am a big fan of Eco-Challange in Facebook), but I have no friends in countries like Trinidad & Tobago, Gibraltar, Seyshells, Micronesia etc ekeseterraaa.Thehehe.

If we were in 3 decades ago, we might find it quite hard to keep in touch with relatives and friends. But now, let's give the biggest applause to the creation of internet and most importantly the social networking system; Friendster, Myspace, Facebook, blogging and the current latest fetish; Twitter.

Users are millions around the globe. It is up to individuals on which networking they want to be active in. Like me, I am more comfortable with Facebook. Sebab ada Pet Society, GEO challenge (kat atas tu silap tulis tapi wa malas nak amend), dan segala mala serigala challange yang ada sehinggakan kuiz-muiz yang melucukan.

Being our information widely spread all over the internet, it is very vulnarable to simply type in or post pictures about everything that happened in our daily lives. Hence, the creation of Cyber Law to protect users. Currently, Twitter has been a big hit. Ashton Kutcher has just received his 1 million'th (salah eja ini kut tapi biarlah sekali lagi wa dah malas) followers. As watched in E! news, the blue bird will always appear in the TV screen twittwitting flying around.

One of the hollywood actor opiniated that ; i don't do twitter and facebook because i don't want to know what everybody else is doing like "i-am-washing-my-hair", or "i am so lazy". And things like that.

I have to say that he has his point. Which is a strong one. But in social networking, we can always filter our postings. I did that. Because there are certain things in the internet that I do not want to know.

Another part that I don't really comprehend being in the social networking is adding up 1234-tell-me-that-you-love me more collections of friends. Do we actually need that thousands of friends? Do we need to have our pictures being seen by our so-called-friends? Does by approving you will make you my moon my man? (ok, sedang menyanyi di sini). Bahaya tau, main add add semua orang, nanti dia curi gambar kamu sebarkan baru tahu.

Social networking is really a good thing. Kurang rasa rindu kat Ezlyn, Dayah, Yusma, Massy and her baby Jood dan sekalian rumpai-rumpai laut yang study di oversea. thehehehe. We are always updated with each others' latest news and activities. But one thing for sure, we must be VERY careful with what we do, our postings and approving strangers. Tak semua orang baik zaman sekarang.

All right. This is quite a long post. Dah lama tak type panjang-panjang. Bahasa di atas tunggang-langgang sebab dah lama tak baca buku.

By the way, topic macam ciritordie. Esok ada exam. kangaroopatahkanshinguardamar betul lah exam hari Ahad!
