belog

It's so funny how some people boleh berperang because of blog entries. I remember mornings when my friends who are still in law school, would text me to inform me that so and so wrote this and this about that and that. Everyone was so angry, including me and I'm not even in Uni anymore! But now when things have escalated to another level, I think it's just plain silly. I'm sure we all have better things to do than get all hyped up over a blog entry. The one thing that has changed the blogosphere that I don't like at all is how it has become a source of mengumpat and mengata. Either it's true or false, it's still either mengata or mengumpat. Either way, it won't make us any better. I'm not saying this to anyone in particular, I'm typing this as a reminder to myself and everyone. Because I'm guilty of that too. A blog entry could spark off so many emotions, so many unwanted, unnecessary attention and reaction. It's only normal. But we should all learn not to care so much about other people's lives, and to refrain from writing controversial issues which would start off a debate/forum where people write nothing but criticisms and mengutuk another person. Perlu ke? And let's not even touch on the issue of blogs being the medium to incite feelings of ill-will. We should not misuse our blogs. Hmm...
