It’s been a long time I ‘logged’ into wordpress. I’ve been working on social networking,its necessity and the impacts of it on us. I understood certain things which I wana share and present to you in this post of mine.
When I saw the movie ‘The social network’ I was fascinated with the idea of facebook. I’m a user of facebook and twitter. Twitter got recognized ,but facebook was received by the masses. Twitter stood in the second place. social networking help people to share the views raise issues etc.
I don’t know about myspace or friendster and I’m least interested in them. I saw an interview of Sean Parker in which he said the sites mentioned in the above line failed to maintain and run their servers , login problems which actually lead to the people ‘migrating’ to facebook and twitter which made friendster and my space leave way to facebook. Facebook and Twitter are now the most popular sites for social networking.
“We can improve things only when we start using them”-its vishu
When using twitter or facebook I found some ‘draw-backs’ in both of them.
The idea of sharing an idea is the main theme of social networking. The idea can be fully formed or not fully formed. It depends on the person.
And security issues also matters in the social networking. Not only social networking anywhere security is necessary. I find different videos on you tube regarding hacking passwords of facebook and twitter,which is dangerous and not a great idea.
Privacy is the next big thing in social networking,a user cannot talk to all his friends (his contacts) at a time,so he should have the freedom of power to choose.
There is a need to develop social networking with privacy and security!!
