Euphoria Google + and Vigilance Social Media Users

(Our Tech Blog)In the previous post, I've talked about why Google + can be beat up Facebook. Well for this post, which I got from Kompasiana. I will discuss about the euphoria Google + Social Media and User Awareness.

 Although not yet officially launched Google + or GooPlus or Plus or GP has attracted users of social networking. Maybe it's time for Facebook replaced by other social media such as Friendster began to fade and change shape or Myspace, Tagged and others who left before he could fly. Facebook with its own character is currently a top choice of many users, in addition to Twitter a different format.


Google +  itself actually took the basic format of social media like Facebook (FB) or Friendster (FS). Why then FS who had triumphed suddenly replaced gradually by Facebook and Twitter, and then disappeared until finally transformed into the online gaming arena? To answer this is serious and requires careful in-depth surveys and research. And the easiest answer is a sense of boredom with the look so-so alone or start much spam and junk messages. Actually at this time also began to show symptoms of FB will be left due to the reasons classical users boredom and rampant spam and security issues of personal data.



Google + comes with the lure of a new look, though fundamentally still include features that exist in the FB and FS, start trigger euphoria social networking enthusiast. Additional guarantees a high level of security and integration with email would be a bonus promotion despite its own security guarantees it remains to be seen. At least the experience of using Gmail will be the provision of early beliefs of social networking fans to join. Regarding the issue of confidentiality of personal data absolutely no one can convince, what else to remember Google's advertising business has become one of the sources of his wealth coffers will certainly see additional database from the increasingly bulging Google + this would be a huge potential for advertisers.


Remember the issue of tracking the user's data does Google and Apple over the iPhone and iPad ago, though ultimately termentahkan with convincing denials from both sides, still looming fears of Internet users or mobile devices. We as users would be very easy to become an easy target for anyone, either directly or indirectly through the virtual gathering sites. Therefore, what we need is not being alert and self-indulgence in excessive data we have. The personal data including photographs, video and geotagging information that indicates the presence of us somewhere at some time. All this looks simple and easy as clicking the keyboard but the impact that can be generated will never imagined. We've seen significant data concerning the case of marriage (infidelity, divorce, etc.) or crimes related to social networking.


Once again, we need to increase vigilance and careful response to something new in cyberspace that can result in anything. Not necessary that we rush into the first user without knowing the risks.
