Facebookians! Be aware of facebook

Today, most of the people; old or young, students or officers or almost all walks of people are addicted to a drug or whatsoever in the form of facebook. Most of us have become facebookians. It is a social networking site. Mark Zuckerberg, the company’s 24 year-old co- founder and chairman founded this site. It is taking over our lives rapidly. It did spread like virus. It is wildly popular all over. Facebook reconnects regular folks with old friends and strengthens their bonds with new pals. It can do a magic to rebuild a family. Facebook has also become a vehicle for broad-based activism — like the people who organized on the site last year and mobilized 12 million people to march in protests around the globe against practices of the FARC rebels in Colombia. It has proved itself a milestone. Today people are mad about it.



It is not the exception. It has darker sides too. We know them but we aren’t aware. How can we be? We are the addict of it. Even the most distinguished product can have its disadvantages and can cause some predicament with one's character. Talk about long distance relationships, Facebook would be the one answer friends, family and lovers can count on. We are uploading photoes to a great but not that may be the right posture. Some relationships tumble down due to facts like these. We are killing our valuable time and giving to it. We are just looping our mind on it. During the time we could have utilize in creating something new or fostering ourselves. If we give such devotions and passions to our works then our work would be beautiful. Have we ever thought of making such creative site? May be not, we are happy on enjoying other creation.



A lot of a user's personal information is so accessible that almost everyone, even those who know you but you don't know of, can view it. England's top Catholic bishop placed a warning that Facebook and other social networking sites may lead teens to commit suicide. Nichols warned that social networking sites can damage intimate relationships and leave teenagers without strong social ties.



I am not arguing here that facebook is all way bad. It is a damn good. We shouldn’t be so much addicted that we forget our chores. We should be good followers of it. In order to get entertainment or prevent the entry of devil in our blank mind we can be good friend of it. Isn’t it wonderful that we can find our friends with a click? It’s a marvelous invention.



We shouldn’t be addicted to it. We should make time limitation. For my part I always say “Using facebook one hour a day makes us updated and safer”.
