"Driving to the market ", "Heading up the ladder", "Falling down", "Just came back from the washroom". These are some of the weird Facebook status updates that one gets to read every now and then. I myself very rarely keep a status on my Facebook since I believe it is primarily used to highlight some major discovery or event on one’s life or used as a gentle reminder to all your connected friends that you are alive and well.
Facebook is rapidly become one of the most visited websites in the world today, feeding a society hungry for social connecting. It caters to the young as a perfect method to remain in touch with their friends. It allows career oriented individuals to increase their networking circle, and the elderly to remain connected with their long lost relatives/school friends. Some people have faced security breaches and suffered "hacked" profiles, "fake" profiles and defamation attempts though this has not thwarted addicted users.
Facebook is a perfect tool to interact and build a strong social network that helps a person remain connected to all of their family and friends. But one must understand that continuously misusing this tool by posting juvenile status updates, astrology readings, quiz answers and application announcements makes 80% of the wall content to be useless and does not deserve a glance.
Let’s start becoming a little bit more responsible....please!! I want to look at my wall and actually pay attention to the content!! Don't you??
