the wow moment!

it was two months ago that i deleted my orkut and facebook accounts, the reason being very simple, ‘there are better things in life’. to be very honest, social networking is a ‘talent killer’. the same people who would have been out there writing blogs, playing football, working out at the gym, programming or even something as obvious as ‘thinking’ are now spending hours looking at weird profiles of fictitious girls. let go off the girls, people take a keen interest in reading scraps and the profile owner takes it upon himself as an ‘obligation’ to ‘increase the number of his scraps’.let me say that once again..there ARE actually better things in life.

to add to the fun, there are despo lover boys, stupid show offers(like me) and dumb senti girls who think they’ve all of a sudden got a chance to show themselves to the world. facebook! now this place is so very girly, girly would be a sweet word, its actually ‘auntiesh’, i wonder why people are actually ready to pay billions for it. for those of you who dont know, facebook rejected a billion dollar offer from yahoo and there was a rumor that google offered 2.3 billion. thats heights man!

to be very honest, i completely agree, it gives you a platform to find your long lost friends and build a network, but just think, if that friend actually deserved to be your friend, he would have never been ‘long lost’, you dont actually talk to your hundred odd friends, they are just ‘there’. you are actually wasting some of the best times of your life on stuff which doesnt deserve to be wasted so much time for. in two words, excessive social networking is for the ‘emotionally challenged’ and cool souls like you(?) and me should go for the BETTER things in life.
