Are you finding what you want? Some people put a lot of thought into their online presentation of self, some build detailed profiles and some are timidly not sure about presenting themselves and some are bold and expressive about their profiles. There are many disposition associated with how people present themselves. Hopefully many care for the honesty aspect. I don't get those who are criminal minded or violent and abusive minded in their motivations for being on social sites. I think its a very low level disregard for themselves and others, regardless of how slick they may think themselves to be. Sadly the world has people who are lazy in being self honest and want to steal, harm and take from others. How to rid the site of such types is an ongoing work. But, for the individual, find as many ways to learn people before you go off and meet people in person, be careful about giving out too much personal information and don't paint yourself in ways that imply that you are wealthy or one who has vast assets. If you push the image of being provocative and sensually reaching out to express lustiness, then you probably can expect to attract the undesirables in vast numbers. People must remember, the internet is open to whom ever clicks on a link. That should be warning to the wise that the world is what the news presents. None should get over confident and careless, nor should one be overly eager in the meeting of others. a neutral public place is always the choice, and today, with the nature of the phone camera, it might be safe to snap a picture of the person you are meeting and send it to friends. If the person is apprehensive about the picture, should that raise a caution flag for you? Over and over things speak about the need to be "self responsible" when utilizing social media to meet people. Certainly don't meet and bring people immediately to your home. maybe its not even good to let newly met people know the exact community you live, because people can associate communities with your wealth level. We all want to come from good places or live and be about places which are good and quality. But, the big question is, "Do you know who you are giving such information to?" I don't know if its the 24/7 media of news and web news, or if people have become more criminal and violent minded, but what ever it is, the news of that nature of so much vile and violence can't be ignored. This includes people with titles, degree labels, and any other labels. It's probably a safe thing not to assume too much, and don't take anything for granted and make giddy blind connections that expose you to the unknown, to a point you are self unaware of what you are presenting or disclosing and to whom? I don't think paranoid is the answer, but being aware and with the self preservation's sense of caution may be to your better benefit. Should you give your cell phone number, or use one of the voice communication systems with people you hardly know? It's probably a point where one may want to use as much care dealing with social web sites as one would use in the streets when meeting people. If you are impatient, anxious and overly eager, you may miss out on being with the cautions that is in your best interest. |

What's with people- one minute everyone is complaining about fakes, others talking about scams and other talking about insincere people, then a post which seeks to discuss improving the web experience, and everyone gets the zip lip. This site is amazing. I guess this kind of commentary has to be put in "one liner slap stick comedic format, for people to interact.  It's general and common, even on the local news web sites, people are generally non responsive unless its a comedic format, I do wonder if so many often claim to be of such care, concerns and intellectual, its often not exhibited in discussion. unless its about a 'hard luck story", or such. Apathy has resulted to have many people hurt and damaged and some even killed for the lack of concern to think about the social media in a self responsible manner.

People put their lives on Facebook, and the other media in ways that is not healthy for them, nor do they even consider how they are "profiled". It's apparent the many agencies monitor social media, bots run the net continuously, re categorizing people. Self marketing to "advertisers" and most have no idea of doing so. I feel for those who have the idea of privacy. Once you put it in the web, "its there" !!!!!
