What is this life if full of care
We have no time to stand and stare?
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep, or cows.
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.
A poor life this, if full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
These beautiful lines by William Henry Davies describe the kind of life
we lead in the 21st century. A century where people are have no time to
say a 'Hi', where we do not know who our neighbour is. This is the
century where we have made remarkable progress in the field of science
and technology but have equally regressed in the field of culture and
community.
We are living in a world where a broken iphone is
more sorrowful than a broken heart, where having fun is limited to
television and video games and in a world where our endless wants only
lead to disappointment.
Humans are social animals. We
communicate and interact with each other and share experiences to build a
bonding with the society. And time being scarce, we've forgotten about
the way socializing was back in the old days. But thanks to technology,
we've been able to take this entire experience online.
A few
years ago it was only possible to keep in touch with family, friends and
colleagues by phone, text messages or email. Now you can update your
profile on these social networks and every one knows what you are doing.
Simple and quick!
From the business point of view, the use of
social networking sites for personal and business use is underestimated
by many online business owners. Using social networking strategies for
marketing a product or service online is very effective because you can
scout out target markets and potential customers with just a few clicks.
Social networking is the buzz that communities like Okrut, Facebook and
Myspace created. Today we can connect with our friends and family even
from thousands of miles away thanks to these wonderful social networks.
Sharing the most memorable moments of your life through media has become
a child's play. Increasingly, people are joining these networks to
virtually engage in social activities and continue holding the banner of
being a part of the society.
One of the most amazing social
networking site that has been created recently is Buddy Puff. It can
well be compared to the likes of the biggies like Facebook and Myspace.
It has created a fusion of social networking + blogging + media sharing +
music sharing to create a one of a kind social networking community.
The sheer simple yet sophisticated interface is promising and extremely
easy to use. I highly recommend Buddy Puff as it stands out from the
usual social networking sites like Facebook and others.
