Hey I know why I like this report card…
It doesn’t have E for Fail…
Social networking apps have done a lot for this urban generation. Sure we have been hacked and phished and all that, but in real life, we also get mugged and harassed… Apps have made it possible for us to survive the daily stress at work, in the traffic… Even when we can’t take leave, at least we can escape reality for a little while… although when you’re having fun, it’s never enough.
We’ve also come to appreciate the diversity of life. It’s fun reading about other people’s exploits, watching their videos and being able to like, comment, tweet whateva… I mean, I may totally lack the guts and the budget to sky dive, but at least my friend allows me to be a part of it…
As evil as life can get, with all sorts of criminal minds lurking across cyberspace, social networking has also become a platform for less criminal but equally damaging activities… like bullying… nevertheless, we are hopeful that the same channel can be used for good… to mobilise this generation to greater heights by doing socially, politically and technologically benefical things…
I’m just a typical end user… happy to share my day and get a take on what’s happening around the world whenever my friends update their apps… Let’s hope more funky devices get invented… It get’s gradually boring to limit my apps on certain devices only…
Oh yeah, but kudos to Yahoo!… I love my centralised access of social apps from my webmail… and kudos to HTC for an affordable android platform which functions stylishly!
