How can you book my face?

What does “book” mean? According to who is answering the question, there could be multiple interpretations:

Security: “I am keeping a record of your activities”.
Football referee: “I am handing out a Yellow card”.
Ticket office: “I have reserved a seat”.

I believe that “booking my face” means I allow you to know everything worth knowing about me and my life. We all become open books to one another, without reservations or privacy. This is the core philosophy behind Facebook, where strangers can become “friends” without ever meeting face to face.

Whether on a profile or a fan page, messages such as “I need help”, “I can offer my services”, “I have a talent” and “I need to get married” are exchanged openly.

On one side, this type of communication can lead to very positive things, social change, enterprise etc. On the other side, Social Media outlets such as Facebook and Twitter can be monitored. We need to ask ourselves when we are typing a message: Who can read this? Will there be any repercussions to my message?

There have been cases where the administrators of Facebook Groups bent on social change have suffered repercussions for their beliefs, but their message has lived on. It is not the technology who makes revolutions; it merely helps people open their hearts and seek like-minded individuals.

If you book my face, I will face your book. If you blot it, I’ll definitely twig you :)
