Keeping It Classy

I have been noticing more and more that people of all ages have lost the connection from the Internet and real life. Now I know that statement can mean many things, but what I am talking about, I am sure EVERYONE can agree they have seen it as well.

Have you ever logged into you Facebook or Twitter account and saw a post someone put up and your immediate thought was "who in the world would post that for everyone to see?!?" Well I most definately have! Over the past weekend I saw a picture that I thought I would never see pop up on my news feed. Then it happened. BOOM!! A Facebook friend of mine posted a picture of herself with only her panties on and her boyfriend standing behind her covering her breasts with his hands. I couldn't believe she was so comfortable with plastering her almost naked body all over the internet for all to see. To make matters worse she is a new mother! I understand that Facebook is ours to control and so we see it as our private site to post whatever we feel, but people need to remember that although we can control what is posted and who sees it (to some extent), we cannot control what someone else does with it. It is easy to share other peoples picture and take screen shots of almost anything now to spread it farther across the internet. Who knows it could also become the tope picture of you on a Google search if you type in your name. No one controls where things on the internet end up so its dangerous to think of the internet as a dumping ground for your entire life and all your feelings. Remember on the other side of that computer screen is another person looking at everything you post. Don't post anything you wouldn't want you grandmother, or future children to see!
