i just came back from class and switched on my laptop. Automatically the 1st page loaded up is facebook. As usual i screen through the list of status updates of all my "friends" and i noticed alot of them mentioned about shake tremor or quake. But i didnt really feel it. Seeing people from KL,melaka,johor and singapore posted something related to the shake i think there are some truth to it. I posted "so many people say they felt earthquake on facebook...got meh...." and somehow it generated some discussion. It was not until 10-15 minutes later that online news start to have short reports on the quake.
Conclusion? facebook is more powerful than news. If you read through newspaper everyday, how can you not login to facebook and read your friend's status message every 2 minutes?
Lets hope everything is fine with the dear neighbor.
As @ers say, when we hear a news of another country, its not only a piece of news, its update about my friends' homeland. Hope that all my friends are not affected by this quake.
Interesting me.
