photos issue
when posting on facebook pictures... THINK CAREFULLY!!!
There was a story i heard from someone where...
a boy who was celebrating his birthday (lets call him birthday boy!) had taken a picture of himself! he posted it on facebook and then recieved bad remarks about it! he was embarrassed and decided to delete when... one of his school friend copy the picture and edited it by adding funny animations to it! that evil friend than posted in on facebook and tag the birthday boy in it! the birthday boy was further embarrased!=(
well jus to tell all of you that you should not do anything like that to your friends ok?!
also when posting pictures think carefully that you are not exposing to much info of where you are IF you have added strangers which i recommend you should not!
** only add people you know!!!**

disclossing the right things
Hey!=D Today i will be telling all of you the things you should disclose and the things you should not!
COOL...
Cannot reveal gender and age(to play safe)
Original
Out of this world
something that you Like
For example, when you are about to give your account or profile a name in Facebook or other social networking sites choose a name that is COOL!
You could...
- write your real name the other way (e.g amirah= harima/ rani= inar)
- spell your name a different way
- use your pet name
you should also not reveal your age or place or school or where you are working as you might not know who is reading your post your viewing your profile as a stranger might be reading and might stalk you! if you really want to tell about where you live or where you are then you shouldgo under privacy settings and choose the option that only friends can view your post and you should also add the people you know and not strangers!
thats a tip! but i would like you to actually not reveal you particulars!
REMEMBER: Any information you reaveal online is PUBLIC. Once you placed the information online it is
- Freely Accessible to anyone
- Not within your Control ( you cannot effetively control who looks at your online information.)
You should try and practice Selective Disclosure of information. There is no need to lie in order to protect yourself. you become a liar if yoy habitually tell lie.
there are 2 important information you should know...
- Public: It is okay for ANYONE to know such information about you. Basically they are unable to contact you.
- Private: Never reveal private information to online strangers which aloow them to contact you. E.g. mobile number, home address, blog, Friendster, Facebook etc.

chain mails
hi everyone! sorry for the huge 1 week gap! anyways i am about to share with you and experience of mine that is related to chain mails! here it goes...
i had commented on one of my friends's post on facebook. later on i recieved a notification that some person commented on that same post! whatever the person commented was somehow like this:
*story of some girl who was lonely as no one talked to her and everyone mocked at her and then she committed sucide*(could not remember the story! sorry!:( )
the girl who commented this then wrote that if you have read it do not i repeat do not ignore it! you will have to post this same comment on 15 of your friend's profile after you read it! if you do not... the girl who committed sucide will come and haunt you and will make you suffer and then kill you!
first i was scared to ignore it and was about to follow her instructions but then i thinked through it and decided not to do it! after a week still nothing happened to me and i realised it was all a lie and it was just made up to scare people!
so my dear readers... do not be scared if anyone sends you this kind of chain messages or mails!
i also have recieved the very popular chain mails about this ghost named bloody mary! do not worry there is nothing such like that and you also do not have to do the things you are being told in the message!
