FAREWELL FACEBOOK (Digital Suicide)
1 BACHILLERATO

TASK: Watch the video again (it's a short film). Please, write your reaction to it. I expect a substantial amount of text. Questions like the following should be answered: Have you ever had the same thoughts as the young man in the video? Do you think the story reflects well the doubts a Facebook user may have? Is it realistic? Is it well balanced, showing the positive and the negative sides of social networks? Do you like how the topic is presented? Do you like the end? etc, etc.
DON'T just put words together. I'd like to have a very clear impression that you have given it some though and have tried to express ideas in the best possible way you can.

ANSWER
This video, in my opinion tells the reality. The majority of the people add in their facebook to people that actually don't meet. They add to people for have more people in the list of friends. But rarely they don't stop to think if really they want to know the people in person. Usually we add people that
we saw in the street just once and send the friend request. Normally we use the facebook for upload photos of us and our friends and family, we commented the photos or the states of our '' friends'' of Facebook, we look the photos that our friends upload...
Sometimes I too have asked myself why we add people without meet them. He shows what he thinks about the Facebook. It hasn't why everyone have the same thought that he has.

Dear Three King,
