You’ve probably read something on the web which has shocked you, made you angry, and down-right pissed you off. Whether it’s a blog post, a tweet, or even an instant message, you couldn’t help but to feel strongly about what was being said.
It’s a good thing.
I find that a lot of people don’t like to express their opinions for the the fear of being judged or inciting conflict. No one likes to be judged, and no one likes conflict (okay, that last one isn’t totally true), but not being firm and opinionated means you’re being wishy-washy. And besides, people with opinions are much more interesting than the me-too’s.
You can’t make everyone happy, so just say what you want. Put the expression back into self-expression. Otherwise, why are we all on this “social web” anyways?
