Privacy

Social Networking has most certainly become a triumph of our generation. The majorities of individuals in your class, at work, on the streets, or even at a bar have a Facebook account, a Twitter account, or can be found on other networking sites. Every couple of years, social networking seems to change and become a bigger part of our daily lives. We dedicate so much of our time to these websites (such as Facebook, Twitter, etc) that we have become to a certain degree dependent to them.  We have become so accustomed to virtual relationships that we somewhat lost value in person to person relationships. Now-a-days, we can find and track friends from any location, at any time via our mobile devices, computers, media players, etc. These are all components of new media. Social networking will take over all forms of communication and a virtual world is something that we must understand and use to our advantage. Risks that might be involved will come from our lack of privacy but if we learn to manage this issue and adapt to the virtual world, we can have a more content future.
