FACEBOOK: save your computer . save your electricity . save your professional life .

I think it’s far more important to write well than most people realize. Writing doesn’t just communicate ideas, it generates them too. If you are bad at writing and don’t like to do it, you will miss out on most of the ideas writing would have generated. So, lets’ read my third entry.

What is FACEBOOK?

·         Facebook is a social networking service and website launched in February 2004.

·         Operated and privately owned by Facebook, INC.

you don't get to 500 million friends without making a few enemies

For sure, most of you have an experience in using the social networking such as FACEBOOK, MY SPACE and TAGGED.

What will you do when you log in?

Chatting? Gossiping? Doing online business? Or I guess some of you may be flirting. It is right? Since you really afraid and shy to impress your feeling by face to face, so what you do is flirting using social networking. Then, do you find this method as ‘MACHO’ way?

For some reason, flirting using social networking is okay. Somehow, when someone rejects you, you still can hide your face. They can’t watch and hear your tear. Then, you can scream and cry PROUDLY to throw away your feelings.

Alright, back to the main idea of this entry. Here, I would like to share with you some of the disadvantages by using the social networking. 

·         Threat and virus – social network is filled with thousands of daily users from around the globe and it is not the surprise when you discover a number of viruses storming through most of the pages. Don’t get panic and you must believe that social network involves several hackers who actually steal other people account. This hacker could cost you lots of money to repair your computer depending on how badly damaged it may be. So, always keep an update on Norton360 when using social network to filter out new viruses.

·         Cost your electricity – the longer you used social network, the higher your electricity cost. Why? When you want to use social network, you need to turn on your computer, right? Then, once you turn on your computer, you need to pay for your electricity because all computers around the world need the power supply to make them working. Basically, this is how your social networking can cost your electricity. Imagine that you are really addicted with social networking, totally you spend 12 hours per day to face your computer. Can you calculate the amount of your bill in the end of the month? Please save your money. Don’t waste it for something useless.

·         Ruining professional life – based on my observation, most of us love to do important works last minute. Actually, the same things happened on me. Sometimes, I can’t differentiate between the requirement and the desire. Although I have lots of work and assignment to do, however, I refer to spend my time face my FACEBOOK. This is a disease. Lucky for me because my disease was not so serious. Somehow, whether we realize it or not, social network can influence your professional life. When you are really obsessed towards social networking, you will incomplete your important work. By doing last minute jobs, you will produce low quality of your jobs. Lastly, you will give some bad impression about yourself. Pity you.

For sure social network can help you connect with people around the world. Unfortunately, we still can’t deny the disadvantages of using them. Your life is in your hand, feel free to quit FACEBOOK J
