Folklore which is one of the cultural heritages in Indonesia, in the current era of globalization it still has a function for its readers. In folklore contained moral values ​​and ethics which in its delivery tend not to be patronizing so that it can usually be well received among the reading community. Online folklore can act as a means to motivate, strengthen, remind, and maintain moral values ​​and ethics in anticipating the impact of globalization. Online folklore can function as a guardian of behavior in everyday life. Honesty, patience, hard working, never giving up, and simplicity need to be continuously nurtured, and maintained in the face of various challenges and competitions in the era of globalization.

In the era of globalization the spirit of solidarity, religiosity, cooperation or mutual cooperation culture, and the prioritization of shared interests are increasingly eroded. This is due to the increasing individualism and selfishness as a result of competition and advances in information technology. Therefore, in this case online folklore can act as a means to convey various forms of moral values ​​and ethics that can be used as a medium to strengthen solidarity, mutual cooperation, and prioritize common interests.
