August 23, 2010 –when catastrophe hit the highways of Quirino Grandstand in the city of Manila, Philippines; an event that broke the Chinese families heart into pieces.

Hopeful and adventurous faces of Chinese nationals have been smothered with shadows of anxiety and grief as they take their last trip –for 8 unlucky travelers –fortunate for some who made it through the valley of death.

Two days had passed after the bloody hostage taking yet comments from Facebook, Twitter and other social media networks were just spicing up casting blame and condemnation from different sides; Chinese and Filipinos.

Facebook page of Philippine President Benigno Aquino III shows different emotions of lost, grief, anger and pain; profanity and hatred occupied mostly of the comment bars. Furious users blew out their disgrace on the president and his Law and Enforcement units; labeling them as despicable, unworthy and lacks proper training.

While angry Chinese citizens on Facebook expressed their hatred by organizing Facebook Fan pages condemning the President. However, few have shown understanding of the bitter event and chose to comment guaranteeing words of mutual relationship between Chinese and Filipino people.

On Twitter, action movie superstar –Jackie Chan reach out a friendly hand on the Filipino community. The action star had just arrived from South Korea when confronted with the sad event. The movie star tweeted this on his official Twitter account:

“I remember the day before in Korea we talked about how people should love each other. We already have so many natural disasters..typhoon, tsunami, everything. Humans should be united and not kill or hate each other”

Despite the ill-fated event his people experienced, Jackie never showed any grudge on the Filipinos; he even offered friendship in a gentle manner.

Overall, the social media served as the last outlet for confused, angry and concerned citizens for self expression and information as the current issue lags out of the online reality and leave scars in the real society.

Lately, the Aquino government utilized social media networks for reaching out to the Filipino community. As an easy access, concerned citizens may now post comments and suggestions for the government issues. Social media will provide a place for mutual understanding between the government and the people with one cause –Unity.

Social media with its multi-faceted usage pour down to the peace and order keepers of the Philippine country –the Philippine National Police (PNP).

The PNP recently announced to the public through several news networks that crime fighting will now virtual with the use of Social media; Facebook and Twitter. The PNP maintains a fully operated 24 hour monitoring through the PNP Directorate for Information Technology and Management System.

The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) Deputy Regional Director for Operations Chief Superintendent George Regis reaches out to the public for assistance in capturing most wanted criminals of the nation.

Recently, social media networks aided in capture of computer Mark Dizon which is responsible for the death of six Filipinos, an American, a Briton, and a Canadian in series of attacks last month. The relayed messages of Dizon from one friend to another made possible his capture when the PNP got hold of the message.

Ivan Padilla, a big time car theft boss was caught through disseminated personal photo and a modus-operandi report which gave the PNP an idea of their movements and the Facebook account of one member led to the capture of the rest of the culprits.

But PNP admits social media has limits. The statements and evidence coming from social media cannot be considered as hard evidence in Philippine court hearings. Others posted comments expressing that as desperate act by authorities and it will be hard to bypass privacy options. Some thought of the possibility of security breach due to hackers.

However, there are those who found such initiative to be relevant and necessary. Some lauded and even encouraged the PNP to dig further improvements regarding cyber fighting of crime.

This strategy has proven its effectiveness for it has been an excellent tool when it comes to marketing resources. But if these marketing strategies supporting their personal production are not in good systematization then their plan and effort will definitely put all into waste.

Currently, SMO or Social Media Optimization has continually expanded in diversity and advancement is widely available. Social Media trends technologies are powerful to engage with users to facilitate with supporting a product or service, even if the users are not officially employed relevant to the providing product or service.

Social economics has gotten more compound since then. The universal ease of use of social media tools yet delivers disadvantages for it could enable even more obstructive approaches to the automation of vital processes.

There are plenty of social websites that are improving their security for users’ safety because many certain websites are truly cannot be trusted to access. For such instances, more people have been in danger due to networking sites’ open to even criminals to do destruction to users.

Such incidents are terrifying and had actually happened in modern reality. Though Social Media offers variety of advantages however, to the other side of it are more disadvantages to users.

Social media makes ordinary people extraordinary and talented personalities to be world-known celebrities. This is very logical due to the heavy load of information and sharing effects of social media networks. The social media atmosphere provides every person connected on the gateway with blast of diversified data in just a click. There’s no crime with such activity because the internet is purposed to provide unlimited information for the searcher though without specific restrictions for the usage of such data.

What’s terrifically devastating is when brainy yet foxy persons alter, revise, taints such information and distributes on the web. And not only distribute but bomb such despicable information on famous search engines on the web.

Let’s take for an example, the sixteen year old Youtube discovered, Justin Bieber. For many not oriented with the web, his just a teen making millions, singing famous songs and affiliated with some foundations but assuming that almost 80 percent of globe is connected to the internet, you would now think of the syphilis issue or the communist country concert tour or bad enough –the Justin Bieber car accident.

These issues are not brought by the show business industry but originated from a social media network, particularly 4chan –an English-language imageboard website. According to reports the heinous cyber prank group hacked Youtube by injecting their own code which displayed that Bieber in a car accident.

The syphilis issue was also kindled by 4chan. It was born on the picture of Justin Bieber and with Kim Kardashian seen with nipples out. 4chan users then published the image unto their site which and heavily bombed it on Google making it number one on the hot search for a time.

The last issue yet the most hard to believe is the Justin Bieber’s World Tour on the communist state of North Korea. This was also mastermind by 4chan by penetrating Bieber’s world tour contest site. The site decides on which country Bieber will visit by online votes. Unexpectedly before the contest closes, North Korea topped on the votes. North Korea which is restricted on use of internet astonished millions on becoming the next world visit for the teen star.

This concludes social media as a dangerous weapon for mischievous citizens on the web. There will be more and more of them as generations come and the only defense the target can employ is to disconnect himself online which also means isolation from the rest of the society.

Social Media is a combination of technology and social connections which are modernize to achieve consumer’s business transparency. Since internet is the number one strongest source of communication today regardless user’s educational status; it is resourceful and can put knowledge into practice.

Since modernize technologies today’s generation has been world widely affecting society in plenty of alternative ways, it helps building up global market which cause much advantage to reality. But on the other side of it, if there’s advantage, disadvantage comes along the way.
