GOtcHa!

I have just updated my status in FB. Frankly i have been so addicted... sometimes it is merely a check in. Nope..i didnt intend to brag in what ever i do, where i have my lunch or dinner... its just that i want to be seen and i want my FB to be filled with numerous status.
Notwithstanding all these status i.e making it known to the public on my whereabouts, at the same time i want my personal security to be safeguarded! ...and how is that?

This is a phenomena that entangle most of us. We are 'opening' our secrets to the public... to the universe... to the eyes of irresponsible third parties... something which should actually be done discreetly.  These info are easy and free tools for these kinda people to create incidents that would be categorised as accidents at the end of the day.True... Risks are everywhere.. but calculated risks mitigate unpredictable moments. So be careful guys... we might unintentionally channeling salient info to wrong people.
The advent of technology is the so called sole agent (so far) on some 'inhuman' issues happening around us nowadays. People with smart phones can easily be intruders in our daily life. People can simply make you famous within  a day in FB. KXkX was one of them... when she ran amok with that uncle. Well not fair of her as well on her actions. But people recorded her... and alas! Hey KxKx smile ...  u r on social media !! That was tragic right? Well she learned her lesson well..i bet that.

FB is another tool for us to genuinely seek others' friendship and interactions. The platform is superb! But its 
the people that ruins its original objective. Nowadays romance scams are everywhere in FB. I have  tested this ... haahhaha... they sweet talk you... they texted and called you everyday.. at the end asking money from you. Yeah... you have to be emotionally strong and alert all the times in order not to be one of the preys! I wonder why some people still fall for this kinda of scam. I figured out perhaps it was because of love. Once you are so deeply in loved you are blinded and unable to see the truth... what more to distinguish between right or wrong. How powerful love is yeah!!!

Being human, sometimes we faced and encountered frustration in life... sorrow... sadness... dissatisfaction.. 
Its a brilliant move not to share all those moments on social media... people might interpret differently... 
People cant read your mind... except some acquired skill Tok Mohs who can interpret what's on your mind... hahaa. These kinda status will be shared by your so called friends to some other friends. This is what i call gossip; rejuvenates! heheheheh... the implication is wider and of coz viral as the conduit to channel this info is endless... 

Well this is what we call technology... 
Some people claim that we cant live without technology... yes I agree.
Some people allege that technology is the IN thing ... of coz I agree..
But living in this borderless platform where Internet can invade your life any day.. any time... any minute... all you have to do is to be careful... use your brain, don't ever let your emotions rule you and you wouldn't want people to Gotcha you when you have done something silly... right?

So long peeps!
