「Monitoring begins starting from a search」
A book with a catch phrase such as that
With a casual phrase
You painfully become aware that you're living in an SNS society
You "search" as soon as "?" pops into your head
Would you really be okay with that?

Well, I don't really have an idea what SNS Society means ._.)
I don't understand a single thing in this entry. I think you'd have to read the book to fully understand what she meant here ._.) Too bad there's no english translation of this book -.-
Well, I think it's about mystery thing again... (Kotaro Isaka is a writer of mystery fiction)

SNS = social networking sites (such as Facebook and Twitter). SNS society would mean a society such as the one we're living in right now where SNS are prevalent and part of everyday life, and everyone pretty much knows everything about everyone due to everyone sharing everything about all aspects of their lives. Kind of like that.

My conclusion for the book's meaning//what Rina meant:


Nowadays, people have access to a lot information which is good because they can learn from it. But sometimes, people get too into 'it' that they just stick to learning things with reading them here rather than going outside and experience things and learn from it. Rina's point is probably: Are you okay with 'searching' things this way? Rather than experiencing this, feeling more emotions, and learning from them?


But yeah, this is just my simple piece of mind...
The book is titled 'Modern Times' so I think it really fits the definition of the generation now.

Rina's post is why my social media presence is pretty thin. I have a Facebook page, but have very little information on it. I have posted exactly one picture of myself, and it's from 2003. I figure if people want to know things about me, they can ask....

I am the opposite myself, Social Media is very important to me.
I am a huge Japanese idol fan but there is no way I can meet them in person but using Social media I can talk to them and get to know them as people.

I have a friend who is a pharmacist. Shortly after getting her first full-time position, she completely abandoned all forms of social media. She didn't want to risk the position she got through six figures of student loans based on something inappropriate showing up on social media.

I really wonder what Rina's position on this is. I mean, in her line of work, having a heavy social media presence is very important. It's a way to market herself and Scandal as a group, and maintaining the connection to the fans is important. However, I'm sure she has a desire for a degree of privacy, too. I'm sure it's tough to balance that out.

Likewise!! But not only Japanese, with the rest of the world it´s the same! And using SNS we could know much more and continue being fans...

I think she just concluded this after reading the book, not necessarily she's in a position of being uncomfortable with social media.
And they write their own blogs and tweets, I don't think they get told when & about what they have to write particularly. They could share what they want to let people know and they could keep what they want to be kept in private.

This was an interesting blog entry from Rina. When I read it at first, I was immediately reminded of the plot from the game, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. In it, various types of information is closely monitored, tightly controlled, and manipulated to suit a certain need. When Rina said that in this current, net-based society, we search for an answer to something as soon as we have a question (Honestly, who hasn't done that?), I couldn't help but think about how easily we have all of this information at our fingertips, and how closely this modern era resembles the world of Sons of Liberty.

The question she poses, "Is this really OK?," is a really good point.

Maybe I overthought that a bit....www
I came really close to recommending the novelization of SoL, but I didn't after reading a synopsis on Modern Times. Apparently, it's part of a series of novels by the author, and SoL's story didn't really fit in...w
That said, Modern Times did actually sound like an interesting read. w

Is it okay? I would say no but I'm a shy person so I may be biased. The real problem with "search" is how easy the answer comes. You forget almost as quick. If you have to fight for the answers to your questions they tend to be internalized. As a result they stick with you longer.

The saddest part about how easy it is to use internet searches for information is how rarely people bother to conduct such a search, at least where basic, factual information is concerned. I'm not talking about finding out people's personal information, of course. I mean things like historical events, news stories, scientific research, and stuff like that.

Those are also interesting points...Like how all of this information is easy to come but also easy to go as soon as we're done with it.  It becomes frivolous.

@saldiven, you mean how people on the internet have a lot of knee-jerk reactions to something and comment without having the proper information on a given situation?
That annoys me to no end... (^_^; )

Seriously, right?

I mean, these people are posting on that very same internet where 5 minutes of research would show everything they wrote is wrong. Makes my head hurt.
