Digital Citizenship

After the digital citizenship post, I learned that...don't give your life a lemon~

Do you know a stunning fact that nowadays we have approximately 2,095,006,005 online users around the world?

Do you notice that your friends' eyes including yours are glued to electronic devices such as Ipads, Iphones, smartphones, etc every day??

Also, do you know that teens spend almost 9 hours per day on social platforms, and about 30 % of that time is allocated to social media such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram??

Please! Don't be stuck in the social media for a long time!

Nowadays, with the advent of advanced technology, people are totally immersed in the world full of social media. Hey, guys, don't spend too much time there.

Don't you know that if you hang out with your friends there for so long, your ideas will be restricted only by your friends in the closed system, and other different beliefs, ideas, and ideologies will be cemented. This phenomenon is called Echo chamber, in which filter bubbles filter out all of the other ideas, which restricts your independent and creative thinking ability. Plz! Don't be stuck in the social media! Try to think outside the box!!!!

Do you have a chance to interact with a person today?

Hey! Guys, it's time for you to think about your life? Do you have a conversation with anyone today? Hey, don't get me wrong! Here, I mean having conversation with strangers, or someone you don't know very well.

Do you have a conversation with anyone today?

It's true that everyone craves connection and interaction with others, but now, many people use the social media to make anonymous friends on the other side of the world. Don't you think that whoever spends too much time chatting on line makes you feel the person is pathetic?

You have to know that though it's AWESOME to make friends online, you even at the end of the day, don't really understand what your online friend is really about! Worse, you become disconnected with the society and your real-world friends because you devote too much time and energy online chatting with your anonymous friends.
