Social Networking

Social Networking is very essential in todays world. It can benefit one in many ways such as meeting someone new and getting a job. "I was very impressed by that, that someone reached out to me, so to speak, with a position and looked at my background and realized there might be a fit here," LaSpina says. "And so I replied and conversations ensued from there, which became more and more positive.
LaSpina applied and he's now an employee of Osram Sylvania". As you can see according to "Social Networking Technology Boosts Job Recruiting" by Frank Langfitt that it is easier for employers to get in touch with candidates and for candidates to get in touch with employers. More benefits can be like people can always have people to talk to and discuss certain topics with.


However just like for every good thing there is a bad side for it , social networking also has some negative effects. "Think students don’t care about online privacy? Think again, say two researchers who have published a new paper about the privacy attitudes of 18- and 19-year-olds" ("Who cares about Facebook Privacy? Students do" By Marc Parry). It is so easy to get stalked and creeped out by people on social network sites. They get access to most of your information and can figure out personal things like where you live, where you work , or where you go to school? These technologies evolved a lot over the past couple of years but I believe that it can actually increase and get better over the years.
