i would have thought f/b is a very powerful and effective way to share any info quickly and to reach loads of people , if you have 10 friends and they share it with 10 of their frinds then it doesn't take many shares to build a large amount of people who know .

sad news on the bbc website, it says he worked for blockbuster and was travelling there the day it happened, jobs come and go so do relationships and sometimes theres no hope and we get Depression but time heals all wounds

. Now when I was a teenager that was a bloody good night out and nobody panicked. These days anyone out of contact for 6 hours appears as a missing poster.

Possibly because when you were a teenager (like when I was one) there were no mobiles or social networking - times have changed Pullip!;)


But sad news; some of us are given unbearable loads.

I appreciate that, but even so people weren't as quick of the mark to shout "missing" as they are today.
I had one come through my twitter the other week that had been missing for 6 hours. Now come on that's just ridiculous.
The cynic in me wonders if some of their friends are just keen to get celebrity re tweets.

why is missing for 6 hours ridiculous, there may have been some worried family who couldn't get in touch with their son/daughter mobile phone may have been down, the missing person may have been at a party and fell asleep, at least if people use social networking sites, other people could pass the message on to the 'missing person' to contact home, because family are worried.

I remember when i was younger, and after a night clubbing i would think nothing of going to a party, and arriving home early on a sunday morning, at the time i never thought about my mum, being worried (now i know as i'm a mother ) and there was no mobile phones to text home in my days.

My son is frequently out of contact for above 6 hours and I don't panic and post his photo all over twitter. The ridiculous 6 hour one involved an adult of 19. Whilst 6 hours is probably understandable for a younger teen a 19 year old 'missing' for 6 hours is farcical.
