Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 17/02/2017
» If you've pored over newspapers (in a desperate hope to find a story to base your editor's note) as much as I have, you can't help but notice the types of stories that make the front page or your Facebook newsfeed again and again. Here are nine Thailand-only headlines I've noticed from various news outlets on numerous occasions, along with my observations on them. Strictly for your entertainment.

Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 03/03/2017
» This week, I give you the low-down on the different types of "friends" and facebook posts you'll most probably have lining up your newsfeed. In this world of chaos, it's always nice to be able to spot some sort of pattern. See if any one of these applies to your "list".

News, Published on 31/10/2017
» For months, Facebook's headquarters in Menlo Park, California, has been in crisis mode, furiously attempting to contain the damage stemming from its role in last year's presidential campaign. The company has mounted an all-out defence campaign before this week's congressional hearings on election interference in 2016, hiring three outside communications firms, taking out full-page newspaper ads, and mobilising top executives, including Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg, to beat back accusations that it failed to prevent Russia from manipulating the outcome of the election.

The Cambridge Analytica red herring
News, Leonid Bershidsky, Published on 21/03/2018

Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 24/03/2017
» Who doesn't like a new Facebook update, right? You may already have experienced a new feature which displays exchanges you have with friends on a post in a new pop-up tab similar to the one that appears at the bottom of your screen when you send messages to friends.

Life, Catherine Faulder, Published on 14/08/2015
» If Facebook was a person, who would it be? My answer: he is my husband and we are in a dysfunctional marriage. Having never been married, you may be disinclined to read on. It was an arranged marriage. I didn't know what I was getting myself into 10 years ago, aged 15. I was too young to understand the weight of what I was signing up for. It's not even like we dated, I couldn't suss him out before my username and password tied me down to our contract. My vows? I do, Facebook, I do… even though I don't really know you!

Tackling the 'lone wolves'
News, Editorial, Published on 18/03/2019
» The worst massacre of innocents in eight years occurred in peaceful Christchurch on Friday. In a 36-minute orgy in two separate mosques, 50 people were shot dead. A definitely demented but functioning man created an unwatchable Facebook video as he killed from close range. Heroes emerged from the mosque mats and in police ranks, but the worst of the killer's work was done.
