Google and China

Google decision to stop censoring its search service in China on Monday was a principled and brave more, a belated acknowledgment that Internet companies cannot enable a government's censorship without becoming a de facto accomplice to repression.



When Google took its search engine into China four years ago, it came under attack from human rights groups. Google countered that it was better for the Chinese to have a censored Google than no Google at all. It took four years for Google to acknowledge the flaws in that reasoning.



Google's departure may have more resonance outside China than within. We don't know how many of China's many millions of Internet users will be able to read about this public indictment of China's use of censorship. But that is preferable to helping maintain the fiction that the Internet in China is the same sort of vehicle for open communication that it is most everywhere else.

Positive and Negative Impact from Facebook

As you know, Facebook is a social networking service that we can form a network by inviting our friends. And from which we form a networks, from Facebook we can consider their activities, following the game, add friends, or our network of schools based organizations, local and beyond our domicile.

Since its release to the public on September 26, 2006, now Facebook has been the social networking with the most users in the world. According to official records of Facebook, they currently have to attract about 300 milion active users. Where 50% of that number using Facebook every day.

Below are some interesting facts from Facebook:

-The average user has 130 friends on Facebook.
-There are more than 45 million update the status every day.
-Eadh month, there are 2 billion photos uploaded to Facebook.
-70% of Facebook users are outside the United States.

Naturally, every new Technology, would have Positive and Negative Impacts. So also with Facebook, have a Positive and Negative Impacts as well. Here are some some Positive and Negative Impacts from Facebook based on my observation :

*Positive Impacts from Facebook:



1. Strengthen Hospitality
This probably is the usefulness of Facebook the most we can feel. Even with Facebook, we can find the back of people we have ever known in the past.

2. Knowing Potential
In Facebook, there are many useful quiz to find out more about who we really are. However, we also must be careful, because some quiz in Facebook contained in an element of prediction that is banned in Islam.

3. Media Campaign
Clearly, Facebook can be used as a media campaign, you can promoting your Product, Service, Agency, or other things. In fact, at Yesterday's legislative Elections, Some candidates are also using Facebook for the media campaign.

4. Facility discussions
OnFacebook, you can join the various communities/groups.

5. Places that you can Share and Solve Problem
Sometimes, you get a problem, then you update your status on Facebook with the problem you face, and if someone cares, he/she will leave comment on your status and help you to solve your problem.

*Negative Impacts from Facebook:



1. Our time wasted more and more - Facebook is useless for the less useful.

2. Waste of Money
If you access Facebook from your handphone, of course, It will reduce your pulse.

3. Facebook makes you lazy to study and learn something, makes you lazy to do something that you must do it.

4. Facebook continuosly, indirectly as a result, we experienced what is called 'duping'.

5. Triggered the free and unrestricted intercourse
Virtual World, a world without boundaries, one can transformed into anybody and do anything, good or bad.

So, we can take conclusion, :
Use the new Technology as well - a good idea to do anything, good deeds, useful, and don't harm yourself or others. Do not look at Facebook only from one side, but look at it from other side.

Because, on the one side, Facebook is useful, but in other side, if we don't have a strong stance, Facebook will damage our mental, attitude, and perspective.

That's all from me.. Don't forget to leave your comment !!...

Flashback 2009 >> Indonesian's Earthquake

Last year, our beloved country, Indonesia, returned to be shocked again by earthquake . So many victims had fallen out again and again. The loss suffered was not only materials, but also hundred of people, who were getting injured, lost even passing away . earthquake as far as we know is vibration happens on the surface of the earth. While according to the scientist, earthquake is friction of the earth's crust or in the other words it is called earth's plate.

Our earth of course happen to be a solid material. As solid thing, it should not have been movable. But within the earth actually materials have been moving all the time. This movement will cause energy and if result of movement is too big and even goes beyond its endurance limit, earthquake happens. There are some type of earthquake and one of them is called "Tectonic earthquake". It happens because of the act of releasing energy as result of friction of tectonic plates.



The energi yielded by collision among stones is known as "Tectonic Handicap". Theory of tectonic plates explains that earth consists of some stone layers which most of crust layers will drift and form a floating layers just like layers of ice. These layers which are broken into many pieces move slowly and then collide between one another. Power of spread of tectonic earthquake is different from other kinds of earthquakes because it follows meeting patterns of tectonic plates that compiles earth's crust.



Base on the above facts, we can conclude that when the earthquake happened, the most dangerous things are the buildings erected in the earthquake risky area not to mention people's awareness and the way they behave to the earthquake itself.

It is really touching and so sad to see the impact of earthquake that has happened in Indonesia. We should have realized that natural disaster actually is a warning from ALLAH SWT. His warning is to make people aware of not to be so arrogant to ALLAH SWT. Not to dare break his law either. Human should have protected the earth instead of ruining it because ALLAH SWT created this world including human and other creatures within is not without aims.....

Okay,. that's all, guys.. please give comment !!

As for the impact of using English in era of Globalization in every opportunity, might give effect to the Indonesian language shifted from its position. But with its dynamic characteristic , Indonesian language has changed a lot. One of them is by the appearance of the use of "slank" in our daily conversation. Neverthless we can cannot claim this phenomenon will make nationalism ti Indonesia die. On the contrary, Indonesia language remains popular and eternal with its style that is more dynamic among the young generations who will determine to what direction they will bring Indonesia in the future.



The Importance of usage of English in era of globalization that is more and more clearly before our very eyes cannot be denied and neglected anymore.
