Narrow-mindedness...

Who doesn't use Facebook today...? It is kind of no-brainers just to even think of it... No one can resist this trend... social medium like Facebook will eventually became an indispensable part of one's life... if you are not using now... i'm sure one day you will...

Looking at today The Star Online news... "Najib a big hit on Facebook"... This even further confirmed my statement above... Apparently even the PM now has a fans page and he also TWEETS with his fans... i must say our PM is quite a contemporary... and it is a good thing... not that i'm trying to mock him...

Facebook nowadays is more than just a platform for individuals to stay connected to each other... due to its immensely huge network... 350million users and increasing... it is now becoming a business ground for entrepreneurs and big companies... AirAsia for example... uses its fans page to stay connected and informed them with the latest happenings and products of AirAsia... and there's lot more other than AirAsia...

Though the initial intention of Mark Zuckerberg was just to use it as a web page showing Harvard college's hot babes... with headshot photos for people to vote and rate them to provide rankings... now Facebook is way more than that... and now he is damn rich with net worth of US dollar 2 billions... as you can see... great things can come from a thing that initially many thought it might not be good...

In this information rich era... one can benefit a lot from the internet... and if one fail to realise that then he/she will be left behind... pornographic materials are easily available nowadays... blocking such websites wouldn't help... so personally i don't care if all the porn websites are blocked or not... but please not other websites... especially business related... stocks... real estate and brokerage... and perhaps some other websites that i don't know it is blocked... USM conferred as APEX University means nothing... if all the management staffs failed to realise that we are now in the information age... not industrial age... information is money...

No more FortiGuard Please...

Concerning this... i would like to urge the PPKT of USM engineering campus... unblock all the websites and give me freedom to surf the internet... especially facebook and blogspot... is time to change my dear university authorities... please think in a larger perspective...

By the way... Mark Zuckerberg was only 25 at the moment when this was written...
