Information Madness

There are some good things about the internet and social media while there are many many bad things about social media. Social media is like a village that can spread the rumors like anything. One person hears something then spread the news with grain of salt and then before you know it, the story becomes news from what it was originally.

Looks like that's exactly what's happening these days. Social Media and bloggers, tweeples, facebook users are killing people without that person knowing that he/she is dead.

Apparently, since Friday afternoon, Rajnikanth's Death is trending on twitter and google search. Someone spread the rumors that Rajnikanth is dead and before you know it.. the whole internet is on fire with the news of Rajnikanth's Death.
