Thoughts about Facebook

 Since the digital revolution, we got a need for connecting people at internet. We can sit at home, and we can get in touch with almost every people we want to get in touch with, ex classmates, old friends, or relatives. This is the modern way of social life.

But this way of social life is both negative and positive.

Anyone Can write a Facebook Application That Can users install and use. It's in the guidelines for application developers not two create something That violate the privacy principles of Facebook, but there is no control over this, Because the applications run on server That Can not even Facebook. Thus, it is impossible to know what programs are made, really. Can They look as simple and innocent game, but They Actually Collect personal information from users Guard Installed The Who The restriction, and all friends of this user.

And why must people need to publish pictures of friends for disgracing itself?
Look at theese pictures: I don`t think their parents are proud of them doing like that..
Shameful pictures

I do not like facebook Because I don `t think it` s safe. I was a member Earlier, but after a while I saw all the negative sides Such as spreading of private information, it is a "time thief", it is unnecessesary information from everyone, two links Several games and question tags etc.etc. I think this information that Facebook Can Be a treat for everyone, Because some people Can abuse this information in the future.

From a positive side, is Facebook a easy way of getting in touch with eachother. And if you are single and lonely person, may Facebook be very nice to use.
But the social life at facebook isn`t a good way to have connect with people. Look at this video, which shows how the connect with people at facebook would have been if theese have been in the real life.






NEGATIVE THINGS ABOUT FACEBOOK:

This morning I read at VG.net that facebook can cause that people don`t do their work, but use their time at work on facebook. This have also caused a tragic episode in Roan kommune. A demented patient had gone into the winter cold, without any detected it. Night guards were on Facebook much of the night rather than watch her. There had fatal consequences. The patient was later found dead 50 feet from the end. And because of this and because of pupils who were rather sitting on facebook than doing their schoolwork, Halden kommune now forbid facebook.

It is also very easy to write something and send it, than say it to the person face to face. This can cause even more tragic results. I read at vg.no about facebookbullying. And why a 15 years old girl killed herself after facebookbullying. I mean facebook is also a dangerous way to communicate with another people.

But you can do something to protect yourself:
If you do not want people to grab the Facebook photos, you should restrict access to your profile. This should not take a long time to do, just follow the recipe below, reproduced from Data's website Slettmeg.no: 1. Log in to your Facebook profile 2.

AND FINALY: Restrict access only to your real friends!!
