ARE SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES GOOD FOR OUR SOCIETY?




Many people have a presence on one of the social networking sites and let's admit it, many of us are addicted to it . they have positive aspects such as:
·         It is the quickest way to contact our friends and make a long On social media sites like these, users may develop biographical profiles, communicate with friends and strangers.

·          Share thoughts, photos.
  • The sites make it simpler to get in touch with long-lost friends
  • You can post interesting things about yourself and your achievements online.
  • Students and teachers can send homework  through them.
 However, like every good thing, it has a flip side as well. Yes, social networking sites such as Facebook, My Space and Twitter etc, can also have a negative effect. Here are some of the reasons why:
·         Prevent face-to-face communication.
·         Waste time on frivolous activity;
·         Negative effects on health 
·          Expose users to predators like pedophiles and burglars
·         Spread false and potentially dangerous information.

In my personal  opinion, Social networking sites can be good   depending on the use you give them. They have benefits and dangers but it is up to you to take care your personal information and do not accept whoever. Remember all extremes are bad so enjoy  and use them in a good way wasting the appropriate time in them.
