HUMAN INTERACTION IS MORE IMPORTANT
In today's world, every hour, every day, every month and every year the weight of so called "social media" is placing a strain on every single person
regardless if he or she is connected to the internet or is a casual user of the internet.
We have a seen a transition of so called social media that only five years ago was holding up the flag and pounding the drums as advocates of privacy
and now, what has been achieved is a full blown assault on social media users that were tricked into applying that intelligent gathering information
under the disguise of " its fun, connect with old friends " . Far to many are not aware of the implication's of social networking and real life
applications. We all seen and slowly some have figured out that every single byte that has been collected has been forwarded to conglomerate giants
that do influence, trends, consumption, ideology, religion, global events. Study's such as these pointing out that the internet is more important than
sex, alcohol, human interaction and is what all of need to look at and take a very serious note of.
As person who earns a living through social media and its application i will point out one thing. Yes it is possible to earn a living and if one
chooses to earn a living through social media applications then that also includes influencing peoples opinion and psychological state of mind. Before
you or anyone begins to round up the town so as to burn me in the public square i would like to point out one simple thing. Social media application
and methods has simply digitized the real world but the difference ins that one can alter the digital world in comparison to real life. This is one of
the core reasons why social media and new instruments of hi-tech are all geared to handle all social media applications and lets not forget to allow
further reach of those who require to reach you without your knowledge.
In closing people, do what i do, Sunday's i simply disconnect from the internet, battery and phone become two items i leave on the kitchen table and i
simply go about my Sundays as i did before the cell phone invasion into everyone's back pocket was upon us. Oh i remember the day's that someone would
phone me at home and since i would be out walking the dogs or simply having dinner they couldn't find me. Nowadays's, if the cell phone rings and you
don't big up, some people get offended or grumpy, sigh.... i am considering extending my Sunday ritual to Saturday, the only thing that is left, is to
find a way to automate my Saturday's without me needing to be there.
