Why must everything be 'live"? Why do we document everything, and let people see?  Are these communication sites like "Big Brother"? Why don't people like technology? 

I find myself semi-tech savvy. I applaud myself just for  knowing how to make power points, turn papers into Turnitin.com, help my mom with Microsoft Office 2010, and figure out an IPad 2. I use public communication sites like Facebook, and I try to get used to new technology like Blogging.  When we use Facebook, Twitter, and  Myspace, we get in the habit of telling everybody what is going on in our lives. Most people who use these websites religiously, tend to be on these sites a few hours a day maybe five times a week, writing statuses, commenting on photos, taking quizzes, and talking to friends. I find that writing statuses on Facebook make you learn to think about what you are telling your family and friends. Sometimes you forget that what you document on your profile is for everyone to access, and you  never know who could be stalking your profile. When I first got a Facebook, I kept thinking that it was like an email, but then I learned  that I need to be careful about what I say and comment on. You also need to be careful when accessing the internet because of viruses. Also some people can go on specific websites such as Wikipedia where they can change current information and make it false. Which is a good reason not to use that website. So when you think about it, the reason most people would turn away from social media sites and technology is because of the lack of privacy, and the inability to adapt to new things.
