On the topic of my internet life, I'd say its pretty much nonexistent. The extent of it is my e-mail and this blog. I don't have Facebook, Twitter, or anything else. Personally, i rather dislike the fact that people i don't even know can just go on the internet and see what i'm doing, who my friends are, etc.
Thats probably one of the main reasons i don't care for any of those sites. I feel that its rather creepy to have people you don't know comment on posts you make. I also believe its ethically wrong because everybody can know what you're doing and you can't do much about it. Thats why i refuse to be a part of any of these social networking sites.
Another reason i dislike these sites is that people post every little detail, and honestly, does anyone even care? Theres also the fact that people focus so much on the internet that they don't have a life outside of it. I'd have to say that in comparison to the actual world, the internets rather dull.
Yes, dear student, I care what you put online; thus is the purpose of these blogs. Do I care how tired you are for school, mad you have to work or what silly song lyric you put as your status..well, no not particularly...but we can't change that. You might be one of the only individuals that I have found to say that the internet is rather dull...INTERESTING! ;)
ReplyDeleteAnother thing is you don't need 300 friends. You can have only 15 close friends if you want! And the privacy settings can be pretty strict on facebook like not letting people you don't know see your profile, write on your wall, or see your comments! I think you should get a facebook, even if u get on it once a week or couple weeks. Hopefully you wanna stay in contact with some of your high school friends!
ReplyDeleteI agree that facebook can be very dull at times, this is why i go through phases where i do not get on for months at a time
