Living in Virtual Worlds




Since the outbreak of Facebook in Indonesia in 2009, everyone seemed socially mediated fever. Moreover, the advent of social media such as Twitter, Instagram, and Path, all become addicted to update the status.


The longer statuses on social media are increasingly irrational. Just imagine, almost all aspects of life always in show off within a state. Whatever the type of activities, a social media users would immediately pulled out his phone, open social media accounts, and update it in a status.

Want to eat, sleep, or go somewhere though, they never forget to make status. Even worse still, to worship there is still some time to-time to his making status on social media accounts. As we know, worship it is a matter of a man with his Lord. Unethical only if exhibited in social media to make it look more religious.

Social media can be a benefit event quipped individuals or groups that are in conflict. As a result, the social media that other users who are victims of their songs. Sometimes the presence of the virtual world today may make people become childish in the face of the problem. Only bold in words, but no action.

Not only that, any trading activity can now be done in the virtual world. In the past, sellers and buyers meet and face to face in a place to make transactions. However, it is no longer so. Whatever type of goods, regardless of price, new or used, all can be bought and sold in cyberspace.

Indeed, the prospect of entrepreneurship through this world is very effective. Sellers do not have to laboriously rent a stall. Someone who wants to entrepreneurship in cyberspace just need to create a website or social media accounts as a business area. Only by uploading photos of items you want to sell and upload it to the site or social media account, the buyer will come by itself and make the payment through the transfer system.

Other media such as TV, radio, newspapers, or magazines are also increasingly defeated by the existence of the virtual world. Organization, institution, or company bandwagon talkative in promoting their products and inform something like a job or a scholarship. The number of inhabitants of the virtual world it actually makes a product more quickly advertisement or famous.

Chat applications like Blackberry Messenger (BBM), WhatsApp, Line, and other applications now also has much loved. Android outbreak among people with low price allows them to have this application. However, it has made the left SMS, although some of them are still using it.

In addition, the chat users of social media was not always have to come and see for connecting ties while they are abroad though. No need to reach into many pulses, they are already connected to each other.

Yes, cyberspace has penetrated into the core of a person's life today and make them more addictive. This is what eventually led to new habits in social life. No more real real world, everyone seemed to live in a virtual world.
