Facebook, forums and Reality

Hello.....

Saturday morning, it's a bit damp outside... but the sky is clearing up ok, who knows it might even be a bit sunny later....

And i know this because i can see it through the window....

I could perhaps ring a friend up in say.... New York and ask him what the weather outside my place is, he could then tell me it's 7 feet of snow... and then of course i can believe him, because obviously someone several thousand miles away from me is telling the truth... obviously it's all believable....

And it's like that with facebook..... and forums..... i could go in to either right now and tell them i was hit by a car last week, that i was rushed to hospital, i nearly died, they resuscitated me but I'm ok now... and i will get loads of like clicks and people saying glad you are ok denise.... i could easily just produce all sorts of drivel for people to pat me on the back and give me virtual love over the social network..... but that's all a crock of shite....

Facebook has it's cool things, you can keep in touch with friends, share pics, create events, share information around, it has potential to do lots... but it's like another huge online forum, for some people it's becomes the real world....

Out there... is the real world.... and people need to start living it.......
