Twitter, Facebook, Friendster, HI5 etc..these are just samples of community websites. You get to express your thoughts through these sites. We get to update our friends, followers and relatives about our whereabouts or our thoughts on some matter. It's the best way of communication especially if you're away from your loved ones.
It's a great wonder how powerful our words are to people who believe in us. It's pretty astonishing how this can reach people without much effort. Just words. I remember how Rizal sizzled the emotions of Filipinos during the time of the Spaniards. He didn't use gun, just words. But he used a published book to do so. If community websites were already available then perhaps Spaniards won't colonize us for 300+ years. Hehe
Posting, tweeting is such a fun thing to do. Your friends get to react, you get to share thoughts, in short perfect way of interaction. Imagine having an interaction with your favorite celebrity? or your crush...FUN! But when does our post become WRONG. I myself, never believed that there's such thing as WRONG posts. We all have the right to express ourselves but it entails responsibility.
We should be aware of what we're posting or better yet think about it first. You should be responsible enough to face all the consequences of your actions.
Say you post just because you want to say something. No problem. But if that back fires you don't get mad at people who are trying to criticize you. Remember you published it, it means you're allowing people to read, react and to criticize you in anyway they want.
Now, with so many people saying they have lost their right to post/tweet I just want you to know that nobody is stopping you from posting your thoughts. You just have to be responsible. What is being responsible? Think twice before you post it. Make sure you can stand firm to what you think is right. Avoid hateful words that could lead to spasm conversation. Most of all don't be sarcastic. Whether you're reacting or posting, remember to be calm and objective in anything you do.
Again, let your mind speak up. Let your thoughts be heard and be responsible. Happy WWWdot!
