It gets pretty tiring at times when you see some things get viral on the internet when if you really think about it, these are the same things that previously did not bother us, because they simply did not matter. However, with much sensationalisation involved, suddenly, everyone is concerned over minute, trivial, mundane things, that, honestly, we can't be bothered about and will be forgotten with time.
In view of this, I thought a perfect fitting quote comes just in time.
"Too often, we enjoy the comfort of opinion, without the discomfort of thought."
- John F. Kennedy
I'm not sure when the last time I fell prey to sharing some useless information which will not benefit someone's intellect, but I definitely will be more aware of not doing so.
Knowledge is power, and sharing that knowledge is good.
But some knowledge about senseless gossip simply just doesn't cut it.
Then again, being a Business student, the benefit lies in using such vulnerabilities of people to fully take advantage of the idea of viral/guerilla marketing.
