BUZZ!! WITH CARE

Today’s world is a busy place where time means money and people spend it parsimoniously when it does not give monetary returns, the result is that we have started reducing our social interaction and thus have shrinked our world and knowledge about our surroundings. But man is a social animal and it can not stay too far from its origin so virtual society and social networking was invented and widely accepted by all as it bridges the gap created by our daily busy schedule and lack of time. To know the world, new people, culture and interacting with friends and colleagues at the twinkling speed and at your finger tip is indeed interesting and thus social networking sites like orkut, facebook and twitter has become part of our life. These platforms allow users to write messages, share photos, videos and make their own community. But along with all these happy moments that we share, people also pass on their personal information unconsciously that can be misused in various ways. In this the new addition is Google Buzz, since its launch more than 9 million posts and comments have been created on Buzz. Google Buzz is built directly into Google’s Gmail and the product automatically creates each user’s social network, based on the person’s most frequently mailed contacts. Since the Buzz contact network is publicly viewed by default and could expose people’s private contacts it can create privacy problem without user’s knowledge.
I conclude with a small blogging scrap that continue the social interaction and networking, but before your next scrap and buzz pause for a moment and be sure of your privacy and information shared on such platforms.
Best of luck to all for exams.
