SOCIAL NETWORKING

Social Networking sites have become a huge crave and hit in the last 4-5 years in the Internet. The everyday person may use networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook, Hi5 and Twitter to keep in touch with friends and family and to meet new people. People in corporations may use social networking sites as a tool to expand their business and get more clients or as a tool to keep their employee's informed about the company.
The benefits of social networking sites is the ability to expand ones ideas and discuss them with a large amount of people through out the world. People can discuss anything from movie's, music, books and politics in networking sites and have the ability to let people read their idea's. Aspiring artist and poets can upload their original material in order for the world to hear. Social networking sites are one of the top ways in today's society to meet new people.
The "dark side" of social networking sites is the fact that their are people who feed off these sites to prey on victims. This is especially a concern for younger teens because they are more likely to fall for certain traps. Some men pray on young teenage girls through social networking sites in order to do some kind of damage to her, which can be psychological or physically. Social Networking sites in my opinion will just expand and evolve as time progresses. I strongly believe these sites will evolve and become much more than what we are use to seeing in today's society. The music aspect of social networking sites in my opinion will increase dramatically and play a much bigger role than it is today; I believe aspiring artistes will have a much better chance in getting signed by music record labels.
