Its that era! Online life has been seen to upstage reality. We preffer living the social media life than the real real real real life. No judgement by the way. Even the old generation i.e our parents can't accept to be left behind. They are right behind us on this digital ladder that we are all climbing.
But there are guidelines that are basic for you to survive this social media world. And they are:
Anything that you won't say out loud but you are going to type it down to your 'followers' is too much information. Yes sharing is caring. But hunie, most of the people on social media don't really care what you are upto every five minutes. Bring it down a notch. No one really cares.
Another essential when living in this social media life, have a REAL profile photo. Something that really resembles what you look like in real life. Its simple. Wear something good, angle that camera and do your thang! (Accent alert)
If you are croping someone out of your picture, do it well. Don't end up living bits of their bodies on your picture, it looks so bad and its insulting to the other person.
You can always tell who's picture the picture is. Its always that one girl who was so ready to take the picture. She's all glamarous just like a star and smiley and the rest of the crew are just doing other things, fixing their teeth, trying to figure themselves out for the selfie and the worst that can happen is the owner just posts the damn picture and tags every one of them. And then they will lie to your face. "I think you look great"
If you are tagged in such a picture with you looking like who did it and why, curse her ass out and give her a piece of you because she is not your friend my friend. Be careful with this digital camera world. Always be ready.
Filter the amount of information that you put out these days on social media. There are alot of creeps out there who want to find out things about you and you hand it out to them when you write too much. If someone likes your picture at 3:45 am, he is a creep,especially if it is a picture from 2003, then he is a super creep.
The best part of social networking is that you are connected to the world, and its also the worst part, you are connected to the world.
Stay safe now.
Regards.
