A Facebook widget…that stops Sexual Harassment?

It can happen online...but there's always something you can do

Ok…so this is not really a socially relevant blog entry…just my own opinion about sexual harassment that happens online.

Just like any other dating sites, Facebook can be a venue where “freaks” can harass women so easily.  Try to post a provoking picture…or a stunning one, and don’t get surprised if you will get tons of messages from men who will be so desperate to get you on IM, Skype or YM..or even call you.

The problem is, you actually want to meet men, else you had not signed up in these sites in the first place.  But how can you avoid being pestered by virtual harassers and still maintain a good following?

Make use of the screening capability of Facebook, Friendster, eHarmony, or other social networking sites or dating sites.  If you would like to be called by suitable contacts or friends in these sites but prefer not to publish your number, then use the JINGLEME button on your profile.

The nicest thing about JingleME widget is that it can make you virtually reachable from the internet through your Facebook, Myspace, Friendster, LinkedIn,and even Craiglist and Ebay, withotu exposing your number.  All it takes is for you to sign up at http://www.jingleme.com and get your own html code for the widget button.  Anyone who clicks on that JingleMe widget can call your phone number which will not be shown anywhere on the internet.

But isn’t this inviting more tunnel for you to be harassed?  Not at all.  Unlike Skype or any other VOIP capable service, JingleMe has a blocking feature which allows you to reject unwanted callers.  It also has a caller identification which will give you the chance to knwo who’s calling and choose to reject or answer, without the calling party knowing.  You can also set the time and date of your preference to be reachable by JingleMe.

So stop publishing your number online…Start using JingleMe by clicking here now!

“Why in the world would I want total strangers to be able to call me, wherever I am, day or night?”

“The horror! Why in the world would I want total strangers to be able to call me, wherever I am, day or night? I can’t imagine a reason to add that to my blogs.”

So you might think adding a widget like JingleMe will make you prone to “virtual crank calls” and leave you an easy prey for telemarketers.   JingleMe is a free blog widget which allows your friends and clients to call you from your very own blog without exposing your phone number, at no cost at all.  Some people might find it awkward that despite the fact that you do not display your phone number, you are still reachable by practically anyone who gets online…especially people who want to sell something to you.

I am so with you…and I myself would never want to make myself easy access to just any stranger…more so by strangers who pester you in the wee hours.

The good news though is that JingleMe widget (http://www.jingleme.com) has multiple features that can protect your privacy.  You have the option to set the time and day that you prefer to receive calls.  You can block calls from your own blog, Myspace, Facebook, or any social network where your JingleMe widget is located at certain times or days of the week.

In addition to that, you will even have the chance to hear who is calling you before you will have to answer the call…which leaves you the option to accept or reject the call, without the caller knowing that.  JingleMe is really designed so you would be able to screen your callers so you will have the chance to reject unwanted callers.  It can even let you permanently block an unwanted caller until you will permit his/her call to go through.  You can even record all calls and delete them as well.

JingleMe is really for everyone, and can be very handy for entrepreneurs at Ebay or Craiglist.  The best things in this world are FREE, and so is JingleMe.  So Click here to get your own JingleMe free widget now!
