So we’ve got our blog up and running, this is awesome news :) :) :)

On the flip side however, there are some things in cyber life that aren’t so awesome… In fact they’re down right scary.

But seriously, have you heard of cyber bullying?

After reading this article about teens who were   mean enough… no, deluded enough to try and emulate the characters of some show called ‘Gossip Girl, I felt sick.

Then the statistics came in… and I realised: ‘Houston, we have a problem’ .

These stories happened just last year and no doubt, with the ever increasing reliance on technology in social life, there will be worse to come.
