So my good friend Dickson wrote something on social media madness.Here is it:
"Guy dat girl is hot!! "said Femi "but not hotter than this one i just met "said Uche, this heated argument was just about the girls they met on this website called 'Facebook '. Yes Facebook, it got all my friends wanting to always be in front of their desktops at home or use their feeding money to go and get internet time at the nearest cyber-cafe to have a feel of it .
I did not really see what was so fascinating about this website, "Dickson u don't know what you are missing, every hot guy and babe rocks that website " Femi convinced me. He succeeded, I joined the website. I just changed my neighborhood and school so i left most of my friends behind, I was surprised wen i met one, two, three and almost all ma friends that I left behind, now this site got me. The fact that i could chat with them and exchange pictures with them now made me catch the flu, I was down with "Facebook fever!!!! ".
I haven't even recovered from that one when this new one came out "twitter", everybody was talking about it like they were paid to do so. Now your status in the society was almost based on how many followers you have on the social network or if you are verified on it.. It got me, got my parents, got my sisters and got almost all my friends but the most surprising one, it got my pastors!!! Guess they followed that saying "if you cannot beat them you join them ", but can we blame them? That's a million dollar question that will stir up one hell of an argument. Our older folks call us the "jet age" but I call us the "social network age", I am sure that didn't raise any eyebrow (Ok it did maybe just one ok two... ). Welcome to our generation of less spoken words but more typed words. *winks
