The Big Seven

Who is the most interesting person you know?  Do you ever become jealous towards that person? Be honest. Jealousy is something that has been around from the dawn of time. Today jealousy has even more venues to affect people. One way is through Facebook. People have gotten divorces, broken up, had fights and in some cases even killed because of Facebook. Now I am not blaming Facebook for deaths or divorces, I blame human error. A recent article caught my attention about a British man who killed his wife because of her Facebook status saying that she was single. What can be done to help combat jealousy and or rage due to simple Facebook  messages, status updates and even pictures?

Social media has changed many ways in which the world communicates. With all of the online communication some people raise a voice of warning that social media communication is dangerous to individuals who use it. One doctor in England draws a link to 17 teenage suicides. All of the victims had one thing in common, their use of the internet. Identities can be altered and changed with the click of a mouse. This can put people in a false sense of identification. Read more about it at

  1. poor David... no comments on this yet. But it's so good! haha, seriously. It's so true about how Facebook can cause serious jealousy.I have felt that. People lives look so great on Facebook--The smiling pictures, the fun states, the comments, the info. It sometimes makes me think I'm not as cool, or at least that I need to up my Facebook Rep. haha
