I was listening to radio when the DJ was discussing about this topic that Facebook may increase the risk of cancer.
Out of curiosity, i searched the net and found a few websites related to this topic.

Ya, i'm frequently on fb recently... maybe i should visit it less.
However, I believe social websites like facebook and friendster have indeed help us to keep in touch with a lot friends and also help us to get back some of our long lost friends. It is also a way to let us know how our friends are doing recently.
One thing it highlighted is lack of face to face interactions. People spend more time on computer while spend less time with people around. People are getting more attached to computer like how they are attached to their handphone. That's how the advancement in technology has change people's life. Maybe we should recall the days we don't have computers and handphones.
Let's have a day without handphone and computer..!

Discovery about Mouthwash
Recently, ks sent me a link and told me about this news:
Mouthwash linked to cancer
I was like oh gosh... I have been using this product for the past years... though not every frequent. From the website, it said that mouthwash products might increase the risk of oral cancer due to the alcohol in the Mouthwash products.
I have not searched for the related journals, therefore I'm not sure how true is it. However a quick search over the net, you will easily find alot of links related to this topic. One of this link is:

So for the time being, it's advisable to stop using any mouthwash products. And now you have to brush your teeth cleaner...!
