Social (Media) Issues

Along the vast, virtual landscape, there is a wasteland filled with drama, hoaxes and food pictures. I'm of course talking about Facebook. There are many who flock to Twitter and Instagram and even some who use Google+ (whoever they are) but, without question the biggest kid on the block is Facebook. I like millions of others utilize it daily to talk with friends, see what people are up to and even manage a couple of pages and groups. I spend a lot of time on my laptop, but just as much, if not more time accessing Facebook on my iPhone or iPad. In the past few months, Facebook has been making changes, some good, but a lot of them are just plain bad.

Self photography rant

Hi all,

Wow, it's been a while since I made a post. I haven't been keeping very well to my 'post a day' promise that I made to myself. Well I'm only human after all and perfectly fallible in my intentions. But I'm back now and we'll see how this goes. Tonight I want to rant about pictures, more specifically people taking pictures of themselves to post online. It's getting ridiculous and the pictures are getting more ridiculous.  I know there are the classic 'my space' style of pictures, changing the angles and striking a pose and looking fake as hell, but that's only half the issue, read on to see where I'm going with this.
