The life that we show in social media has turned into posting, ! ! ! :-)
The life that we show in social media has turned into posting photos and showing something that sometimes does not exist or correspond to reality. I decided to follow the suggestion of a friend, who’s life has changed dramatically and participate in an experiment called "A Gathering of Friends."
The idea is to see who reads posts without a photo. If nobody reads this message, it will be a brief social experiment, but if you read it, I want you to post a comment with one word about me, such as a place that reminds you of me, an object, a moment, then copy this text to your wall and I'll leave a word that makes me think of you.
Please do not comment if you do not have time to copy the text on your wall, I understand we are all busy, but it would spoil the experiment.

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
