What do I like or don’t like about my experience with using these tools? (social networking)

 

Over the past couple of years we have been hit with the social networking buzz. I really feel it has changed how people interact with each other I don’t know if it a good thing or a bad thing. For instance take facebook which is actually the only social network which I am registered to, instead of people sending out invites to a 21st birthday  people are now sending out facebook event invitations,  I also feel that is making us more and more reliable on the internet access and our  I-phones  ect…  You really have to wonder what did people really do when they didn’t have mobiles  and internet, young children today lives revolve around a computer and it games, and is it right that 6,7 amd 8 year old kids are becoming members of these social networking groups  and could be exposed to things they shouldn’t be at such a young age?? But these are only the down falls of  the social networks for me it has helped me come back in contact with friends from my childhood and primary school,  and I feel as I get older it is a way of checking in with old friends as we all leave college and head our separate ways in the big world. It is also a way of making many new friends.   Social networking has many positives and many negitaves  but it how the world is revolving.
