My critic and thoughts about the relationship between emotion and SNS

I have searched the articles about the effect of the SNS, I found this article. The link is below:
It is about the study that is how the SNS can affect our emotion. Resultingly, the SNS that we upload can affect our mood and emotion. It is like domino effect like said the author.
Researchers in the US analysed over a billion updates from a million or so Facebook users and found that negative posts had a domino effect, causing similarly downbeat posts from others.
The author wrote about this interesting study. When you upload something on your web site like facebook or twitter, it can cause some domino effect to reader who read your web site. If it is good or bad thing, it is going to affect others.

Suddenly, there is one idea in my head. It is the book, and its name is 'Secret'. I think there is connection between these two things. The book says when you think the good images, the you can feel good feeling, even the good situation and good event will come. 

Also, the author wrote this;
Emotions are well known to spread among people, but most work on the effect has looked at those in direct contact with each other. The latest study confirms that the same happens when people are in contact online.
In this line, I felt we need to care what we are uploading, because if I upload about the melancholy feeling, someone who watch my site might feel bad, or getting worse.

I think it is little bit another story, but I would like to share. Many people who watch others website a lot, underestimate themselves. They compare and contrast continuously over and over. "She is living a good life, but how about me?" or "He did this, this, this and this, but what I did?" like this way. It is serious problem for girls. In my case, my friends who have their SNS account and spent time a lot about it, they always talk about another someone. When I meet you, I would like to talk and share about our thing, and your thing. Not somebody who live in the online!

Through this article and my experience and critics, I thought about both effect of SNS. It can affect good way and bad way. So, when we upload something, we need to care someone who might feel my feeling. Some can say "What is the matter, it is my web page!", yes, it is your web site, but you don't live alone.
