As we com closer to the elections on the 9th of June in Holland, politicians do everything to gain votes. For example yesterday there was a debate on the social network site Hyves. This debat was between various politicians. Especially Mark Rutte and Job Cohen have made things very clear between them and their parties. They said everything that came on their mind.
Yesterday, in the evening, there was a Twitter debate. This debate was organised by RTL. The debate was hosted by Frits Wester (a dutch journalist for RTL). At the website of RTL, Frits Wester says that he finds it very interesting to use Twitter for this purpose. He also says that you can see that politics live among the people. Frits Wester says that Twitter is a great way for politicians to get in contact with the people who are going to vote.
The debate was open for everybody, they could join the debate by just putting #rtldebat in front of their scentence. In my opinion this is the future, every party will be using more and more of these social networks for the elections. And even when there aren't any elections.

Do not respond via Twitter if you are a politician
Yesterday Nu.nl posted an article about Twitter. Most of the dutch politicians use the social network Twitter. They especially use Twitter for their own message, not to answer questions from others.
The NOS has proved this, they made a program with al 16000 "tweets" from the last two weeks from and to politicians on Twitter. The most social politician is Marianne Thieme, 75% of what she posted were answers to questions.
Cohen and Kees van Staaij have not sent any answer last two weeks.

I am Jealous
Researchers at the University of Guelp in Canada, say that people who visit social network sites frequently are more jealous at their partner then others. Following the research, especially frequent Facebook visitors spend a lot of time on studying the profiles of their partners exes. These people get more and easily jealous when they see an unknown person of the other sexe on the profile of their partner.
The effect of this is, a vicious circle. People who are longer on facebook, have the time to find more and more information and details about their partner. The effect of this will then be, that people spend more and more time on the site to check the information that they have found.
This is how people search for more and more details. They will make a round, for example; Linkedln, Twitter, and Google.
Is it worth it to not trust your partner, just because of the information you have found on for example Facebook? It maybe easy for people who already not trust their partners, they can check them. But in my opinion it is just searching for details that are not there.
