You've really have to see this. It's the latest in viral videos. There is no music or CGI (computer generated imagery). It's 43 seconds of a frog on a bench. And it's clean! At the time of this posting it has had over 7 million views! Simple yet entertaining.
It's amazing what people find fascinating. Usually it's a car crash or a "racy" video. But for that many people to watch a simple video of a frog chillin' is pretty cool. Funny videos are everywhere, but "be careful little eyes what you see" is a saying we should all adhere to.
When you post content online, it's forever. It just takes one retweet or a share of a status, or a screen capture on an iphone to ruin your reputation. Before you post something, think about your audience. They will judge you based on what you say.
Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?
I remember that saying growing up and it has stuck with me. This applies also when you write things online as well, because in the mind of the reader, it's your voice actually saying the words. And you really don't know what little kid is looking over your shoulder or the shoulder of the reader, taking in what you have posted.
Thank you for reading this and I hope it encourages you to keep it clean, light, and "G" rated from now on.
