Heard of the latest Google joke in Germany ? They collected part of private emails and other informations while scanning WLANs as part of the StreetView project. Although they told everybody since years they will never ever do so. Just take pictures capture SSIDs but no more.

If so what's the use for FB or Twitter of your PRS ? Switch on your PC or laptop or netbook or iPad or iPhone or whatever.

Now, lets read some eBooks....
Yes, Twitter/ Facebook, like any other fruits of globalization and modernization in our time, shares the same property with them, addiction.

Everything just like drug to get people addicted. Internet/ Email / Car, you can not get rid of them for merely a number of days.

Sometimes I just doubt how much information one ought to share with others, if you do not share, anything will change? Any sense that we need to know each other's action always in a real-time manner?

Those produce too much waste of our languages and energy. And make us feel fearful when we are alone, and disconnect from the outer world for a while.

Blog/ Twitter/ Facebook will go to their opposite extreme, when people get really tired, they will find,

reading quietly oneself is perhaps the most enjoyable matter of life.

Let's hope Sony will not get lost, and keep their products in a right direction.
