Ya, that’s the question today?
How often do you update your facebook account with ‘stuff’?
Are you updating your status often?
Are you updating your status way too often?
Are you updating your status with ‘stuff’ that your friends appreciate or are they getting pissed off by watching their homepage getting clobbered with ONLY YOUR UPDATES?
This is exactly the question? On one hand I want to keep my thoughts getting poured out – on the right platform, at the right time, with the right words etc. I even ensure that my updates are not biased towards religion, creed or caste, not even politically motivated! But on the other, I do not like the ‘advises’ that I have been getting. Like this one – “this act may not be good in the long run”!?
Well, let me elaborate.
If my updates are appearing way too often, facebook gives my friends the option to
unsubscribe from my updates, or unsubscribe from my comments or unsubscribe from all my activities! What does it mean? It means – if more and more of my friends keep doing this (the act of unsubscribing from my updates) then I might be left with lesser and lesser number of friends who will actually view such updates! So, even when you might have a lot of friends you may not really be connecting with them…anymore (coz they have stopped looking at you)! It actually looses the whole point of being on the social networking site!!

So, does that mean, I need to reduce the frequency in which I update my status?
But:
- Isn’t my facebook account a reflection of what I am?
- Isn’t my facebook account a reflection of who I am?
- Isn’t this the place where I speak my heart out?
- Isn’t these regular updates the real catalysts which helps me in connecting with many professionals today?
- Should I really be bothered about such thoughts?
If my friends did unsubscribe from my updates, then I must really be doing something wrong!
Let’s analyse what this could be?
- I update too often – This is true!
- I update too often with general gyan, which no one give a f**k about – well, may be!
- The topics on which I update are not relevant to all my friends – very true, I need to be more selective on who all sees which kind of updates.
- I am way to sarcastic – I don’t think so, most of the times I end up making fun of myself!
- I play with sentiments of people – never.
I should not be thinking too much – Yes I guess. But I would like to ask YOU if you have any opinion, do you? To view my facebook profile – click here
