Wrapping All Up

Finally, we are here now to summarize everything we did in the past few weeks.

After all we posted, you can see that Facebook is like a coin. It has both good and bad side. In fact, I personally think that anything can be harmful if moderation is not practiced. As a rational creature, we just need to know when to log off. Though, Facebook do contributed a lot of social issues today, I shall not deny it but I wished to propose you this, think twice. Everyone has to take up responsibility for own actions. No one to be blame.

So, my group and I have already given you every kinds of influences that Facebook can bring to us. Positive impacts have to continue be implemented to our society whereas its negative influence should be avoided. As a wise consumer or user, we must know what is best for us. Please, make the right choice for your own sake..

To be honest, I am a huge fan of Facebook. I found my relevance in using Facebook. So there's a quote I would like to share with you. "The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time" by Bertrand Russell British author, mathematician, & philosopher (1872 - 1970)

Suicide notes are common in society these days, but the adaptation of social media has taken a morbid turn.


the span of a few weeks, two Malaysian youths committed suicide after revealing their intentions on Facebook:


Alviss Kong, 22 year old Malaysian guy, had jumped off from a 14-floor building committing suicide after leaving a 45 minute countdown message on Facebook. The sad news had made to the headlines of local newspapers. It is believed that Alviss made the decision after breaking up with his ex-girlfriend of 4 months. A FB note is believed to be the last message of Alviss.


In a separate incident in February, a 17 year-old high school student jumped from the second floor of her school a few days after she posted on Facebook that she wanted to take her own life.

Eighteen-year-old Rutgers University freshman Tyler Clementi took to the popular website Facebook to post a goodbye suicide note-like video message on his personal account page.
