A... B... C... D... Email... Facebook... Google+.

The cyber space is abuzz with the Google Plus hype. Are circles the thing? Is this the end of Facebook? And so forth. The unveiling of Google Plus(G+) so soon (considering my blogging frequency) after my post Freedom of Facebooking kind of warranted that I get to have a one-month take at it. I would like to mention at this point that this is entirely based on my own perception and not on any statistics or analysis.

Freedom of Facebooking

Facebookers have matured over time. Thankfully the narcissistic @work/@home statuses and futile poking applications are on the verge of extinction. I read a post by a Facebook Product Manager that said people have four primary reasons for updating their status: to shape how others perceive them, to maintain and grow relationships, to share content that others might find valuable, to source information. However, unemployed and nothing better to do, here is my impression of how people utilize freedom of speech on the Facebook social space.
