stalker detector,anyone?

I have always wondered what if...
IF... social networking sites have some sort of 'app' like thingy that let's you know whenever someone is viewing your profile, like immediately. :) wouldn't that be COOL??!

ABSOLUTELY NO!!!

Well, at least, that's my opinion. I don't want to know. Of course, you may prefer otherwise. There are pros and cons to it. I'll start with the cons.

SOOOOO... if there really is such 'app' as per say,

•  social networking sites won't ever be the same again.
• it can get pretty annoying if you know who's who keeps viewing your page
• simple way to start a new gossip around

 (e.g JUST EXAMPLE : Person A accidentally clicked on Person B's page because probably, he got a new ipad and don't know how to use it. Person B gets a notification that Person A is viewing his/her page. Same thing happened the day after and after and after. Person B had a wrong impression and well, told his/her fellow friends... then you know how it goes...)

The list goes on... [of course, feel free to let me know if you want to add-in to the list. I'll include your name with it to show my appreciation towards YOUR IDEA. ;) ]

As for the pros,

• You, as a fellow social network user can keep update on who is viewing your page.
• less online stalkers?
• perhaps, it could lessen your habit of viewing other people's page. Therefore, NOT wasting so much time on the net.
• Maybe, you, as a fellow blogger can use this 'app' to increase your page visitors and know when you need to really keep up when there is less viewers.

again, the list goes on and on and on....

"BUT there was such an 'app' before, which was in a famous social networking site then, 'Friendster'." , you might say.. YES, I am aware of that but the one in Friendster does not give you immediate notifications and I'm talking about having that 'app' in general not only in social networking sites.

JUST MY THOUGHT~
