Social Networking All Around

I like social networking alot, the upside to facebook for me is that I can keep in contact with my friends and family that are far away. For example, my father lives in Germany, but with facebook and even skype I feel just that much closer to him. The disadvantage to liking facebook soo much is that you could end up sitting there all day long (trust me I have done it).  You also get caught up with all the drama that goes along with it. Businesses are using a lot of social networking these days, for example my brother works for Nestle, and literally sits on the computer half the day. It is a great way to see how your product is doing, and you can even help with complaints almost right on the spot. Even in society we have positive and negative effects, sure you can follow your favorite movie star, or athlete.. but have you seen all the back on forth on twitter?? So many twitter wars, you don't know what to really believe. I can't wait to see social networking in the next few years. With what we have so far in the computer world, and technology, its hard to imagine what we can come up with next.

  1. I like your comment's!! How you keep in touch with your dad is how I keep in touch with my cousin who is the Army & in Virgina. I also keep in touch with my friends that live in Amberson which no1 knows where that is Ha! It's pretty neat how your brother works for Nestle & sits on the computer half of the day, I wish I could have a job like that!!

  2. I'm the same way with some of my family down in georgia. I get to see pictures of my second cousins that i havent even met. Like melissa said that is so cool how your brother gets to sit at a computer, but also gets to use all the fun programs to help promote the company.
