Social networking sites

Social networking sites (SNS) are services which allow individuals to create a public profile and interact with users (friends, strangers) and change ideas, thoughts, do research,

The most commons SNS are facebook, twitter, instagram, snapchat...

These sites are very present in our everyday life they have many advantages but they have also disadvantages:

Principal’s advantages:

Principal’s disadvantages:

• cyber bulling and crimes against children

• risks of fraud or identity theft

• corporate invasion of privacy

My favourite social network is Facebook. I use it every day to talk with my friends and to do research.

Let me present Facebook.

Facebook is a social network created by Marc Zuckerberg, in 2003 at Harvard University.

Facebook was created to lead a better life and to share peoples’ social experience but soon it became a social network used throughout the world.

Facebook is fantastic because you can post videos and photos and share them with people you want to stay connected with. You can also send messages, share information, meet people and keep in touch with friends or family, who are away from home. Adding to that Facebook allows people to build professional connections.

However Facebook has disadvantages because people spend too much time in Facebook and don’t do many other activities. Also people can spy on you.

Facebook can lead you to isolation or to addiction, it can also lead you in a virtual relationship and people stop communicating.

Facebook is dangerous because you do not know who is behind the screen, so you do not know who sees you publish photos, documents.

According to me facebook is a fantastic experience: i never meet bad experience and I’m not addict to this site so i thing Facebook isn't a danger for me. Adding to that i thing that if you think before you post you'll not encounter any problems.
