What Does Your Facebook Status Say?

Facebook or most of us would just type its initial FB, is one of the famous social networking sites that is open to the world. I like this site because there are many things that I can do. The first reason is I can share and keep my photos without worrying about my computer's hard disk memory with my jpg files. Next, is I can keep in touch with my friends and I am updated with what they're doing or what's happening in their life through their Status updates. I think it's the most interesting feature. FB offers this box which you can write anything on your mind, for it displays "what's on your mind". Even if you don't write anything on it, FB still displays an update of what you're doing in the site. For example, I clicked on farmville application and my status displayed that I was playing farmville. You can also search for your long lost friends in high school or even your first crush hmm. Well, these are just some features that one can enjoy when using FB. Members love to exchange messages and somehow others are careless about their choice of words and choice of friends. As expected you will receive invitation from other users, and you have the option to add or just ignore them. Others just add them without carefully thinking who they are. Then, here comes the most exciting part. Let's say your boss added you to his FB, perhaps you would be flattered because he considered you to be added in his network. A few days later you forgot that he is now in your connection. You came in for work, didn't like the way things are and oppppppps posted your sentiments in your status box. You forgot that everyone in your list will see that message, including your new added friend, your boss. Gotcha!

Here's an example of this situation. I got this photo from my friend, Saires. I don't know who got this first but it's funny how your status in facebook can change your life.
(Please click on the image below for a larger view, thanks)My status just say, "I hate it because FB, youtube, wordpress, twitter and blogger are blocked in China, but thanks to a powerful VPN I can still access them though a little slower than direct access from these sites."

Enjoy using FB but be careful what you say!
