Thoughts that drain from my Insane Brain ..... continued

The Power and The Curse behind Social Networking Sites.
Disclaimer: Whatever is written below are my personal thoughts (some based on my own Facebook usage and MORE ;-) based on others usage pattern) on the security threats / issues concerning Social networking sites and I’m in no way pointing or targeting any particular person (though you might feel so as you read along).
A few Questions & thoughts to ponder upon and if you wish, to act upon .
1.Are you aware of the Privacy Settings of the Social Networking medium that you use?
If not, please do.
2.Did you know your news (anything and everything published by you) / status feeds can be read and viewed by most of the Toms Dicks and Harrys out there whom you have never met or may never wish to meet in your real life.
[In privacy settings of facebook, there is the option
“Post by Friends”which says “Control who can see posts by your friends on your profile”].
Now, isn’t this security feature actually loosening the security grip on the post made by your Friend .(And this friend can be you, for your friends).
3. Every other user on Social Networking site wants to know who is stalking them :).
Though their are tons of pages on facbook that claim to give you this information , let me tell you , the makers of Facebook are not in favor of this feature & hence not supoorted.
4.Do you ever take the permission of your friends / family before you make their snaps public? Don't you think we should ?
5.Are you amongst those who would never publicize your personal (meaning family) snaps but haven’t given the same thought when you publicized your best buddy’s snaps?
6.Are you amongst those who are horribly addicted to Farmville or Mafia wars etc? You should consider paying a visit to the shrink or at least make an earnest attempt to diversify your potential to some useful task.
7.Have you befriended all your (unknown/unseen) Farmville neighbours and added them to your friend list? Don’t be shocked if someday you come to know Osama Bin Laden is there in your friend list.
8.Are you amongst those who have got so hooked to Facebook or Orkut or XYZ that you have forgotten that one –to- one communication can be carried privately through other mediums like email or your cell phones? Still if you are interested in using facebook for the same “There is an option for sending Messages which are absolutely private.”
9.Public show of emotion has reached great heights where couples who stay under the same roof use social networking mediums for lovey-dovey conversations.
10.Then there are those who open a facebook account of their new born baby even before they open a bank account for their child (Not at all kidding).
11.Are you amongst those who see snaps of your friend of friends in your feeds and end up going through the whole album? (Human nature, can’t blame anyone).
12.Did you know all that applications that you use on facebook and publish the result on your wall are giving away a lot of your personal characteristic / nature or current state of your mind to umpteen people out there?
13.Did you know your status updates and the comments of your friends on them could reveal a lot of information about your personal day to day life? Would you want it to be that way?
Remember that there is no default categorization of friends and all (best, intermediate, not so close, remote) friends are under the same roof.
It’s very easy to know who is pregnant, who is getting married etc etc.
14.Your Walls , don't keep them open for the public . Build gates ("Posts By Me" settings) around them and only let in people you know (just like in real life).
15.Trust me, adding an option like receiving RSS feeds is very quick but removing it, is a long painful process.
16. Are you amongst those, who have a crush ;) on that person in your friend list & you end up on his/her wall everytime you see a news feed of that person on your wall.
17.Twitter : Don’t follow every other person on Twitter who gives a minute-to-minute update of what he/she is doing . Follow those who are using it as a medium for sharing information.
Btw, Did you know , you can lock your tweets?
I think, I have written quite a lot of negative points (not that it has ended, I am just living the rest as your homework ;-) ).
However, trust me; if you use social networking wisely you can use it to your advantage.
Personally, I feel it should be used as a medium for “Marketing / Advertising”.
Use it to market / advertise your
• Passions (implying Hobby(s) and NOT HUBBY(s))
• Skill sets and Talents.
• Product / Company.
It’s an innovative and new way of sharing knowledge with like minded peoples.
Use it for sharing awareness on Socio-economic causes.
Use it to stay in touch with your friends .Schoolmates , collegmates ,ex-colleagues all under one roof is simply a great thing , but , wisely , use the medium of interaction.
The only thing I would like to say is “Think twice before you upload that personal snap or put a status update about your day-to-day life. How PUBLIC do you want your PRIVATE life to be?”.
Lastly, if you think I have SPOKEN SENSE, please do spread the message behind this post using all possible medium of SOCIAL NETWORKING ;-).
Or read what the Experts have to say @ http://bit.ly/8Z9syU
p.s: For Software Developers : Microsoft has its SDK for Facebook (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/ee388574.aspx), so build your applications (Zoos and Farms and Mafias) ,make money & let those who are incapable of getting the right message across remain hooked to FaceBook ;-)
Btw , comments and feedbacks are welcomed :).

Love is Physics,Chemistry ,Biology,Geography and History ;)
A great scientist once expressed His thoughts on Love as:
"No, this trick won't work...How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?"
I can never challenge this Great Scientist in his field of expertise , but I definitely defer on this thought of His.
And I wish I could explain it personally to Him :) .
Love is physics, cause the law of attraction is in action;
Love is chemistry, cause it involves reactions;
Love is biology, cause two hearts are into action;
It's also, Geography,cause it can go beyond frontiers of any location,
And its History, cause "Love" has been there since Generations ;
But , It can also be a Mystery , of hidden Emotions.
This great Man is none other than Albert Einstein :)

Today’s Activity: Garbage Cleaning and Sorting.
Ok, Listen, neither have I joined the Municipality nor have I got into Rag picking. But at the same time, let me also tell you that, I have outmost respect to those people “The Garbage Cleaners” who are responsible for cleaning and dumping the municipal waste. It’s not an EASY job.
But, at least they are sure that what they are dumping is garbage.
The Garbage that I am referring to is the “Digital Garbage” that has got piled up on my system. All thanks to the internet (and the good broadband speeds), that helps me download every other article or rather stuff that looks interesting and most of which gets stacked up for “Later Reads”.
The only thing is like all other guys this “Later guy” keeps telling later and later, till finally I lose all interest in Him :-). At the same time, I don’t feel like dumping Him :-( .Who knows someday, my interest in Him could be rekindled ;-).
I’m sure every other person who is reading this would agree that they are digitized but not completely sanitized from this digital mess. It also doesn’t mean that we don’t organize our data. We all do organize our important data; it’s just that, like in our Life, priorities change with time, similarly some data that was important till yesterday seems to take a backseat today. In simple words, what I mean is that, these are the data that needs to move into the Backup disk and thereby make space for our current critical data. (ok ,ok ... I know we all know that , it's just a reminder)
And, just like in real life, never trust the “Later Guy” :-).
Let’s not pile up our disk with those “Later Reads”. I am not sure, how faithfully I am going to follow this piece of advice that was suggested by my very own brain,but, I will definitely give it a try. Or may be, I would set a time period within which I should go through those not so important data or simply dump it after the elapsed time.
No storage disk made till date can compete against the capability of the “Human Memory”.
3 cheers to the Human Brain “Hip hip hurray” “Hip hip hurray” “Hip hip hurray” :-)

Thoughts that drain from my insane Brain ....
At any given time,the only space a creature owns, is that space in the universe, where it is at that moment of time.
Then why is this whole commotion of who belongs where ?

A message from the "Huge Hot Yellow Pot"
The Sun is a huge Yellow Pot, which is very hot;
As I walked out into the Day, I felt Hot hot hot;
And so I gave the Sun, an angry shot and continued to walk to finish my day’s plot;
“My dear child”, called out the huge Yellow Hot pot,
I wasn’t as hot as you thought;
In all the comfort that you sought,
In all the war’s that you fought;
You have maimed me & made me rot;
You forgot all the lesson’s that my friend “Nature” has taught;
And now, you blame me for all the discomfort, that you yourself have bought;
Wake up my Child, it’s never too late to follow the lessons that my friend “Nature” has taught.

Thoughts that drain from my insane Brain continued...
Even when we fought,
In our silence, togetherness still we sought;
With you, I love those fights
For I know, they would end up with your love bites :-);
Said the Shore to the Ocean, I would wait for you to come back & hug me tight,
For the Ocean and the Shore , It's Love at every Sight.

Adoption
No womb shall be barren,
For the soul that is love laden;
The unseen umbilical Cord,is blessed to those, by the Lord
For He knows, only those shall give Life, by adopting a Child.
