what I meant was... the moment you've decided to HELP pass around bad/negative comments about somebody, that also means that you've agree to the saying, right? Next time if I see anybody who like “passing around” negative comments about a person from somebody else, I'll sure ask her/him, “so, what do you think about this?” if the person's guilty? They'll sure tell you, they don't know anything, they're just passing words around, “dumb you!” and that'll be my internal OS to you!
the worse type of badmouth, is the type that quote from others, ie. Using another person's words to say bad things about you, about him/her, cos, badmouth is already bad enough, but this person still have a bad heart, thinking that he/she herself is still a GOOD person, but only passing words around!!!

Of #MULTIPLY.COM
suddenly I kinda
miss the good old multiply.com days...
things were
simpler,
I wrote my blog,
automatically share, I wrote my own notes, then, my photo albums,
easily organized...
I could see who're
the viewers, and who're not... well... it's simpler, straightforward,
and serve its purpose,
at present, yes, I
use twitter, I use facebook, and I use G+, I even use weibo, for
different purposes, and for different information...
I've ditched
(kinda) reading my rssfeed, as I don't have much time, though... just
today, I've kinda revitalised IT, I used to read rssfeed off google
reader, then, google ditched its reader, and now I use feedly,
anyway... that's not the point, for a while, I thought moving from
rss to facebook (they kinda overlap a bit) is kinda good, everything
in there, right? But then, lately, I find my facebook a little bit
heavy... it's gone to the stage where it's almost everything, but
it's almost... NOTHING!
Yes, facebook
serves a lot of “purpose” in this sense, but then, it serves too
many purposes till it's not purpose, to a point yes!!!
Lately, I just use
it to “bookmark” certain articles, ie. I “share” the article
to “only me”...
I kinda use it as
news reader rather than social network, social wise? Yes, I use it to
SPAM my friends' WALLS, haha! ^_^
for social
purpose? Then, I revert to twitter, kinda more interesting...
cos, facebook, to
me, it's kinda get to a “boring” point, ie. I kinda know who
reads my stuff, and who doesn't, and I know who will “like” my
stuff, or who couldn't care less, or... whatever, but for twitter,
and weibo, yes, weibo, there're kinda “genuine” reply, I mean,
twitter's just followers, that's all, the problem with facebook is
kinda... the “like” is “disturbing”, haha... it's like, it's
there, therefore, you gotta click, and therefore, whatever you post,
you're bothered with the fact, if there're other peole who'll “like”
it... see???
trouble!
I've seen...
err... “peeped”, kinda... somebody in a cafe, simply staring at
facebook, cos, it's an IN thing? He, staring at it, putting his hands
on the keyboard, not typing, maybe he wanted to type, but nothing to
type, maybe he wants to reply, but didn't dare to reply? I don't
know...
well, my brother's
“advised” me to just stop using... well, that's in my mind, haha,
I mean, just stop using facebook, nah!! you won't die not using it!!
(ya, I'm telling myself that!)
see, during the
multiply.com days, I was much more organized, my notes, my blogs, and
my photos, and whatever things that I've decided to share online,
if I gotta share
news? I shared via my google reader (now feedly),
now, I kinda share
everything in facebook, but see, not everything that I shared, people
want to see... and that, not everything that I've shared, is kinda...
sad to say, worth sharing??
anyway,
yes, I was much
more organized in that sense, all my photo albums are nicely kept,
chronologically... (I do have a bit of problem about time, I mean,
I'm pretty particular about this chronology type of thing...)
then, I blogged
more, easy to share, easy to blog...
facebook, in a
way, it's getting too superficial, and too “opened”, even though
I've kept my privacy to its max, but then, it's still kinda
“opened”...
anyway, therefore,
I've kinda stopped using it, kinda...
ie. I don't really
share my “status” there anymore,
and I don't really
share my photos there too,
ad-hoc photos,
here and there, a bit,
non-privacy
photos, like food, place, I can easily do it on twitter...
then, for
top-privacy photos, ie. For family, well... I only have that handful
of family members... (my 2 brothers, haha!) then, I can simply just
do it over G+ (Google PLUS)
in a way, I love
G+ interface, it's obviously less, much less loaded...
the only thing is,
it's less “users”, and less “pages”, saying that, using
facebook is so much more easier, especially for “pages” that I've
subscribed to...
but then, lately,
I've just tried to revert everything, ie. Back to feedly, (or any
news/rss reader)
ie. everything is
there in ONE place (as I've organized) for me to read now or later,
anytime...
for facebook,
well, my pattern of reading through it, is kinda, like... timeline...
on my newsfeed
timeline, I kinda like got myself caught into this “catching up”
thing...
SAD, right??
so... I gotta
“unsadden” myself... haha!
Anyway, if
multiply's back into action, will I use it?
I guess, I will...
cos, I'm kinda comfortable with it...
the way the
information's organized in its site, also, cos, it's not as popular
as facebook, therefore, less hackers are interested in it...
therefore, it's kinda more “private”... ^_^
night!
