WHATSAPP LAST SEEN SAGA
Plenty of messaging apps have knocked in today's operating system platforms, and among them the most trending is Whatsapp. It is a new dawn of messaging. This includes a feature of last seen, which ensures that you are Alive somewhere. Today's reason of worry is, Dude!! his last seen is couple of hours ago, i doubt something's wrong!! Apart from bringing worries it has also invented a new reason for being suspicious. What if you were supposed to be at the college and your sister (Di) checks on your last seen and finds it 5 minutes ago. Suspicion strucks in, with the message flashing on your screen, Di: Where the hell are you? You were supposed to be in the class. Now try not answering it, she makes sure that your cellphone keeps buzzing till its last breath.
The social marketing tool developers are quite a businessman who know pretty well how to attract you and later turn you into an addict. So, with the increasing reports of last seen havoc, the Whatsapp developers introduced Settings>Account>Privacy>Last Seen>NOBODY. So, this was a big relief to the traumatized users of Whatsapp. It was as if they just found a key to the door named SUCCESS, literally. Eventually the screen without last seen notification increased, and so did the suspicion meter. But, this time you could cover it up with any handsome excuse. Elders have always been cynical about the new age social platforms, yet are the part of it. Can't help.
So, how many of us are frequent Whatsapp users? If you are one, then, answer yourself Honestly to these questions;
> Do I get mad when i don't see the last seen time of my girl?
> Do I compare the last seen time of my girl and my friend?
> Do I text impatiently when i see my girl's ONLINE and my friend ONLINE too?
If the answers to all above questions happened to be Yes, then you are not an extra-ordinary person who should be feeling guilty. It is obvious that you are being possessive and are acting weird but that is absolutely Okay!
This happens exactly in the reverse case too, ie; your girl would have felt the same if you chose to hide the last seen option. So, that does not make any person shady. In fact, its time to wonder how carefully the technology developers have implanted a seed that is good for nothing, but only good to creep in suspicions. This is the time to wonder how the developers were successful to invade your privacy and almost screw it.
So, friends this is a simple general post i came up with, because i was once travelling by a public transport and heard a girl complaining about her boy, that, he has been so annoying, and is crossing his limits by invading her privacy. Time to think, who actually is invading the privacy?
I hope the LAST SEEN issues are SEEN LAST TIME.
