Uses!

-Michael -

Some uses for social networking include communicating with people, sharing pictures with people and sharing music.

You can also use social networking to share important information.

Problems

Privacy

-Michael-

You need to be careful what information you put on websites, because some people may use it to find out your real name,

where you live and what school you go to.

Rob - Stalkers hide in social networking sites, waiting for people to leak information about themselves. If you tell private information to strangers, you could wind up with a rapist on your back patio.

Security

-Michael-

Sometimes if you go on some social networking pages, they can be phishing pages made to steal all of your passwords. You

should have a firewall just in case. Also people might log into your accounts and impersonate you if they have your passwords.

People might even stalk you if you give out too much information.
