social networking


Facebook, twitter, mixi...a bunch of social networking sites are being on a continual development, which doesn't know the end. Frankly, I'm a bit scared that it gets to be generalized more and more to join those social networking sites as if not being a member means something wrong.

Indeed, sharing thoughts and experiences sometimes makes some change in our life to the better, but on the other hand, an information overload generates confusion at the same time. My opinion is like this, "we don't have to know everything about matters as well as people" . The reason is pretty much simple, it's because there is a case that we can stay in a peace by not knowing things too detail. One of japanese proverbs also says the same thing, "what you don't know can't hurt you".

Apparently, the world we're living in has plenty of paradoxes.

"What you don't know can't hurt you," added with the proverb "Knowledge increases sorrow."

Because of my final thesis, I've been forced to go deeper and deeper into the world of social media, and all the fuzz around it. It's a world too hectic. The amount of new information is overwhelming, but its importance is questionable.

Information comes very fast and dies out with the same speed. There's no time to process. One can't live on the moment, but have to seek for something new all the time, only to be the first to shine with the fresh knowledge.

After I get this thesis out of my way, I will retreat from the world of social media...

"Information comes very fast and dies out with the same speed. There's no time to process. One can't live on the moment, but have to seek for something new all the time, only to be the first to shine with the fresh knowledge."

you can say that again! Quite often, I'm just deadly exhausted to catch up all kinds of flow of informaion which just passes even without a sound:(

Hope you get your thesis done asap!:)Good luck!
