Its 2.42 am by my lappy watch...sleeping n blogging...but events in past 1 hour just gave a bit of push to my adrenaline to do this write up...
Harbhajan Singh and Ashish Nehra had taken India to a miraculous win...and some facebook and twitter updates were expected...so not a BIIIIIIGGGGGG deal...
But as soon as i was about to switch off my laptop...i felt mild tremors of eartquake..the iron door of my house and so of other houses in the vicinity were shaking badly n i just came running out of the house...in this cold....called up home and made my parents a bit cautious about the events...
Now..i came back inside..switched on the laptop n opened google to search some news abt present eartquake...there was no media coverage as of now abt the earthquake...though on google..a real-time twitter update tool runs which keeps track of all the updates coming...n sec after sec...earthquake updates were there...i opened fb...n almost deja vu was hpng there...frens were updating earthquake-earthquake...
SO that's the magic of Social Networking in this age....It has given a new meaning to our virtual world...that connects people....you can't expect any media coverage as such as social networking does...we ourselves are the corresspondents...in this world of netizens...Twitter n fb are the tools of the day where one can speak his words or pour his shit freely...
A page-3 article of actress Konkana Sen came in this regard...guess, i m not that filmi buff but still this news has some connection here...The actress was facing trouble with her Tata Sky connection from past 3 days...n after being fed up she posted..na tweeted... her sigh remarks about Tata Sky on her twitter update..one of her fans was following her updates on Twitter updates and he turned out to be someone from Tata Sky only...he got it fixed in 2 hours....
Same goes with our former Minister of state Shashi Tharoor..He had got some Norton Antivirus product but its authorisation key was n't working...he also put his sigh comments about Norton on twitter..n within same day..the problem was resolved by Norton engineer....
Social Networking---may become an addiction..but if we use it judiciously and for changing society...it will turn to be a bliss...Its a new age thing which has shrunk us into Global Village...connected by our gadgets n posting n tweeting ourselves on the global 'wall' n twitter's 'notice board'....we all compaining, crying or laughing..all with those virtual social tools...Social Networking rocks...
