Social networking

I think that social networking sites are popular for many reasons. One of the main reasons that they are so popular is due to the fact that they are an easy way to keep in touch with friends and family. Yes, that personal touch that you would get with sending a letter or email or chatting with that person on the phone is lost. To some extent, it is a somewhat convenient way of keeping in touch with people. It is a great way to share photos that you may have and an easy way to share them with those that don’t live close by to you, yet that personal touch is lost. As a facebook user, I find that the only thing that draws me to it is that I see what people are up to as well as looking at pictures that they may post. Facebook does have a few advantages, such as sending out invites to events, but besides this, the photos and status updates, I don’t find much use for Facebook.
