Social Networking nowadays has become unbelievably popular that is actually impacting peoples lives and could also be very unsafe. Sites such as Facebook and Twitter are used for young teens and even adults to communicate with each other over the computer and see what is going on all the time. It helps build friendships with people all around the world over the computer that you may or may not know, which could potentially be dangerous if you do not take precautions. Social Networking distracts human beings from their everyday life, it IS addicting.
When using Facebook and Twitter some precautions to take are to never accept a friend request, or follow anyone you do not know. There are many pedophiles out there on the computer just waiting for a nice young girl or boy to talk to them. You also need to be careful about putting information on your webpage because anyone unless you set your page to private can access that information. Social networking was a great way to connect with people who share common interests but it could be dangerous so know your precautions.
