Fb
I am admittedly a fb spy- I love looking into people's lives to see what they're doing, who they're meeting, where they're going (because I have no life)... Agreed my behaviour is disturbing. Which is why I have changed the password into a crappy one that I would never remember, written it on a piece of paper that i taped to resemble a ball and hidden it at the back of my desk drawer at work. But when I spy, I only do what fb encourages. I will get ultimately bored. But what about the poor souls that photograph every living moment of their lives just to put it on fb, just so that their existences will bear witnesses? So that there is some proof that they lived, and did, and recorded every moment of it for eternity? How do these people experience the event itself then, constantly taking pictures and thinking about them? I do take pictures of buildings. Not only to prove my visit, but for a database for my future in design (don't laugh) and just because I like to. But with people I like to experience what I'm experiencing. Not clicking madly away. How many smiles can you smile, anyway? And to be forced to smile under pressure.... urgh.... and to know that after the picture is taken it'll go straight on fb for the whole wide world to see what you have been doing.... the smile is that much more rotten.
