Think Before You Click
The GMA News & Public Affairs recently started a campaign encouraging responsible use of social media. With the Philippines emerging to be one of the top social networking users in the world, this is timely and relevant.
Basically in the same concept as the saying “with every action, there is a consequence,” same goes for pressing that “share” button in your favorite social networking and microblogging site.
Check out this Think Before you Click video from GMA News & Public Affairs:
The campaign is about warning you to think twice with what you share to the world. Be it in the form of words and letters, photos, or videos, these information can be read by those who you shared it with and can affect them as well. There are consequences, possibly both positive and negative; we hope for the former, of course. But the fact of reality is, that is not always the case.
So before you regret publishing that public message, think again how it would affect the recipient/subject and readers. Think before you click.
I like this blog btw, I rooted for you in the influential bloggers: http://mysassychef.blogspot.com/2011/07/influential-bloggers-who.html
“With loads of opinion and a tad of personality” – I love it!
Thanks for the vote Chef Pearl.
Your foodblog mysassychef.blogspot.com is also commendable.
Are you based in PH? coz I saw Pinoy Tsibog in your blogroll and she’s based in UAE.
Yup, I’m in Las Pinas
This is relevant indeed. Yet this doesn’t stop in cyberspace. We also have to do this in reality.
Indeed, and it becomes “Think before you Act”.
I think GMA news should practice it also but it would be changed to think before you publish.
haha, “Think before you publish.”
this is so true. So many times theres no thinking and so many REGRETS. Good advice!
