The Book of Proverbs meets the Digital Age | November 12th, 2014 12:28 PM
So, #cyberproverbs are a thing. Short pithy statements, like the proverbs in the Bible, but about the modern, and often digital, world.
Using the hash tag #cyberproverbs, Tweeters are creating a set of modern day proverbs about the use of social media and the trials of technology.
It’s a bold new way to bring the wisdom of the Bible into the over-saturated digital world we live in.
While they are essentially not the Bible, they help the reader remember that a life lived wisely includes those parts of our lives that we conduct online.
And as a bonus, several of the cyber proverbs make you chuckle.
