[Volume 8 Issue 10, #1807]
相信我哋大多數都係用緊部智能手機啦, 而智能手機裡肯定裝咗幾個chat apps啦.. 因為呢啲chat apps冇好似短訊SMS咁限制字數, 而且有係用(免費)網絡聯線, 所以我就發現有好多人都好喜歡打幾隻字之後, 就好順手咁send條message出去, 完全唔駛顧慮到要湊夠160個字母.. 對發送者嚟講當然好玩啦, 不過作為接受者, 我其實覺得幾討厭, 因為每收一個訊息電話就會有一個alert同notification.. 試下想像你部電話不停咁響, 到頭來原來只不過係一個一句可以講晒嘅message, 更令人發癲嘅係當你熟睡嘅時候, 喺另一個時區嘅朋友不斷發訊息俾你.. 所以呀, 我已經將電話內所有chat apps都靜晒音囉, 呵呵!! 講開又講, 如果有人突然間send張相嚟但係跟住又唔講嘢, 我覺得有點唔妥囉.. 可能係我自己嘅問題啦, 始終覺得咁樣做好似有啲唔禮貌咁(雖然我知道人哋嘅原意唔係咁樣), 究竟想我點唧??!! 就好似你想請朋友食嘢, 之但係將食物擺到人哋面前就即刻彈開咁, 大家明唔明我要講咩呀?? 所以個結論係, 大家同緊我chat嘅時候, 唔該唔好將一個message過份分解, 同埋send相就最好有個message啦, 就好似我喜歡大家喺呢個blog度以相同做法留言咁, 呵呵!! :D
i guess most of us are using a smartphone by now, and i am sure in your smartphone there are a few chat apps installed.. since these chat apps don't limit the number of characters like SMS and use (free) internet connection, this is where i see some people who will just type one-liner phrase or sentence and then hit the send button so conveniently, not at all need to worry about cramping the message into that 160-characters.. fun for the sender but as the receiver i kind of find this irritating, because for every message received i get one alert and notification.. imagine your phone keeps beeping but all you get is supposedly just a simple message one sentence can conclude, worse if your friend is messaging you from a different time zone while you are soundly asleep.. that is why i have muted all the chat apps so that i am not bothered with the alert, hehe!! talking about chats, i also find it not quite right for people to just send photo out of a sudden without a message to follow up.. maybe it's just me but i think that is a little impolite (though i know it's not the intention), what are you expecting from me??!! it's like you wanted to treat a friend nice food, but you just place it in front of him/her and then walk away, get what i mean?? the conclusion is, please do not overly break your message and do send photo followed by description when chatting with me, just like how i like it with your comments here in my blog, haha!! :D

    1. LOL on what you wrote. I would say that's the inconvenience of a modern-day convenience or maybe an overkill of simplicity. I do agree though that an image would best be accompanied by some words to explain the intention.

    2. You know these are little things that people don't pay attention to until they are on the receiving end themselves and find it a hassle. Good highlight there, SK.

  3. So you don't like to break your comments too... hahaha... all must be written at one go like myself.. hahaha.. seldom break into parts cos I am the "lazy" time.. have to click publish then comment again, publish and comment again.. I am memang lazy... time consuming too cos my connection is slow... so apa nak cakap, cakap at one go... ! but when it comes to apps, its different la..cos the other side normally will be waiting for my reply... so i cut into parts... logic or not? :p

  4. GOOD MORNING BLOGGERS!!!

    Now I know how to irritate SK Thambee by sending him line by line of messages! It does not bother me at all how on earth the guys watsap me! I have several Watsap groups who are big and small individuals.

    The big ones are one Klang Valley cyclists who never sleep and the other is my Class of Form 5 friends who are worst filthy mouthed beings. If you join this group, you might exit in 10 mins after hearing them talk. Anay shakes head from left to right to left to right.... We even have a cross dressing and trans-gender classmate inside that excites the old uncles who must be sick of their wives.

    1. I think the irritating one must be my bimbo sibling who often created FB and Watsap groups with different people all the time and roped me in. If SK has this sibling, he might vomit blood through his ears as well.

    1. Basically I'll set my phone to blocking mode only allow incoming calls, also turn off all notifications, wi-fi and data. Why turn off wifi? cause wifi has very serious radiations problem that's not good for health!!! =]

    2. It depends on what photo, like my brother always like to send those picture of some short meaningful message on it, but still it's quite irritating when it came to the points, he sent couples of it in one time, the notifications alarm is sounds every second!!! =[

      Delete
    3. might as well stop using any electronic items.

      Delete
    4. Umm, do you think is it possible to stop completely??? If can't so just try cut down the usage of it to get the balance or it!!!

      Delete
    5. It's all up to you.

      If we are worried enough about radiation, we should not be dependent on electronic items.

    2. I join some groups in fb too, and I understand when I am following a topic, and when there are replied, there will be so many notifications. Sometimes feel very sien also. I don't feel good leaving the group, so I dont post any comments or follow any topics lor, then I won't receive so many notifications. I just go into the group and just read what other ppl write lah.. haha..

  9. I just mute the notification now. There's one whatsapp group that I'm in, that can have 800 comments within an hour. Crazy to read.

    Don't feel nice to leave the group so I off notification and only read when I want to... No beeping sound. ;)

    There's one group that I have not turned off notification yet.. ;P

  14. I use Whatsapp and LINE. Have to keep up with the technology.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I find it redundant to use chat apps...because I don't need it. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  17. in fact in order for one to use it, you need to be connected to the internet...so you will be draining your battery unnecessarily.

    1. I have to admit I'm not really the updated person through this kind of technology. As long as I can call and SMS that is very good for me. Since everyone has at least one chat apps, so why not! I chose the apps that most of my friends are using - whatsapp!

      Delete
    2. Until now only whatsapp. That's very good enough jor right?
      About sending photos and no follow up message? Unless he or she sent irrelevant one lor. But some of my friend will send some messages - wishes, festive and friendship poems in a kind of photo lar... is it annoying?

      Delete
    3. So far I haven't met any of my friends are doing that. hehehe All very good one. I would only feel hopeless when we send message and regards, but end up no reply one.@_@

    4. Recently there's one friend of mine. She is now selling slimming products. Even she doesn't text us and mentioned about her new business we already understood that when she keeps tag us photos - before and after - flabby tummy and so on. I totally understand that is her requirement in order to promote her selling products. After a few times, I can still bearable with their tags photos. But then later the matter get worsen by sending those photos through whatsapp to us! *Shake Head*. Heard the phone beeping sounds, so irritating all the time. Ended, I delete her phone numbers in order to prevent all her promotion products. On the other hand, at FB, I just hide all her notification and updates. but I didn't unfriend her lar, after all she is still my friend.

      Delete
  20. Hmm, all kinds of apps are just like Internet. You can always personalized and control the things from happen. Sometimes, I really don't get it some people will put the blame over the Internet and all kinds of apps that give them problems. Since it has a very world wide and broad usage. It is up to you to judge, choose and uninstall if it is really give you problems.

    1. Might as well don;t get a smart phone. Get back those normal phone enough lor... My hubby always said that to me. When I off my mobile data. I turn off my mobile data while I was working. Cos all the beep sounds from notification is very irritating. Meanwhile, whenever our mobile data is on, my company seems like got firewall or what - load so slow. So I switch off in order not to waste my mobile data usage while waiting for a photo to load.

    2. Ia; ready done my house keeping over my FB. Select those notification from my best friend and some bloggers that we always keep in touch. As for the rest whom is my friend, post all nonsense photos and video - I just hide all the source that my friend shared and I still remain them as my friend.

      Besides that I also reclassified a group of friends as close friends. so certain photos I only selected and view by this people only not shared to all. Sorry eh...it is all about my privacy and security.
