Social Networking

In this modern times,there is superfluous ways of connecting with friends and families.These sites allow their users to share informations with a selected group of friends and families.These sites includes Facebook, Twitter, skype, oovoo, hotmail messenger, Gmail messenger, hi 5, Aim  etc.There are always positive and negative sides to everything. One negative aspect of social networking is that, there is no privacy. Once a person signs up and agrees with their terms and policies, they have the right to advertise  the person's information without their knowledge. Also anything that goes on the Internet is on it permanently and there is nothing that can be done about it. Also the government can get access to all the informations that the users willingly provide. They can be tracked down if anything goes wrong. Also it can waste our time in a matter of seconds. Once a person signs  into their social sites, they forget about reality and the next thing they  know, the time has gone by but there is little work done.Sometimes, people get carried away when they are on these sites so they post pictures of themselves.Depending on the things they post on their sites, it will be hard for them to be employed because employees can check their social sites without their knowledge. Universities and colleges also do the same thing, so it can affect your admission to that particular school a person wants to go to. One positive aspect is that people can use it for good causes. They can make non violent protest on it. they can also make a plea for people who have some type of sickness that needs people to help them. Also people can be discovered through social networks. Many people post their videos on YouTube for them to get noticed by the celebrities. To make things clearer, social networking is just like driving. The fact that a person have his or her license does not mean that they are good drivers. People drive carelessly. At the end of the day, it is up to the person whether he or she wants to drive safe. In that case, it is up to a person on how they are going to use their social networking.
