Pros and cons of social media websites.http://www.cbc.ca/doczone/episode/facebook-follies.html <---
Document on social media issues. Look at it.
Social media is websites such as twitter,facebook,myspace and various other ones. They keep you in touch with other people around the world. At sometimes it can be good and others it can be bad because a lot of drama comes from these websites causing problems worldwide and in people cities.
　
Pros: You can keep in touch with family and friends and enjoy yourself on the internet. You can share pictures and videos to friends and you can also do lots of stuff like chat and just talk. Its also good for keeping in touch with school or jobs. You can see when you have to be somewhere. You can set up schedules for stuff and you can meet lots of people. You could be in touch with the latest technology in the world and seeing what could be going on in the world and you can order and buy stuff from social media sites.
Cons: You can be harassed and made fun of, and people can make up rumors about you and post them all over the internet thinking it’s funny. They can also make fun of your culture or being racist to you on the internet. The #1 source of bullying is on facebook and more and more drama appears on facebook every single day.
It can also lead to kidnaping and rape. Lots of pedophiles are on facebook acting like they are friends to people on facebook. Getting there trust then kidnaping them.
You could waste a lot of time that you could be using for outside and with family. But some people insist on being on facebook all day and doing nothing.
People could make fun of you enough to make you go into depression.
　
My Thoughts: Facebook is a neat thing yet it can be bad too, I seen bad things happen and good things. It can be good by connecting you to your family that may of lost you or it could be used to notify people of events. Some bad things could be it could ruin someone’s life or It could annoy people and other bad things, It could ruin someone’s work life making them not trustable for a job, and it could make people not want to be around you.
I also think it could be well used for good things, like finding good friends or finding criminals. It could even be used for petitions and other stuff. I use it to keep in touch with friends and family and I don’t use it very often. So far nothing bad has happened to me through facebook and I don’t intend it to. I hope people around the world learn to use facebook maturely and responsibly and hopefully nothing bad happens to them and they enjoy Facebook responsibly.
The facebook newsfeed. This is where all the new information is posted or the profiles that have status updates with a lot of comments. The newsfeed can be nice but it can also become really annoying. This is where you will end up blocking a lot of status updates and other things because they do become simply too annoying. The newsfeed is where a lot of information is shared and you may be thinking to yourself "who cares that your neighbor’s dog barks?" There are a lot of people that just want to talk and they use Facebook as that outlet.
Spam is another problem with facebook because it seems like everyone will send you invitations to games and things that they like. Farmville invitations will get old along with other invitations like "which celebrity are you like" and so on.
