Is Social Networking Safe?
Do you use a social networking site like Facebook or MySpace? Have
you ever considered that danger that site could represent to your
identity? Most people don’t. But social networking Websites do present
a problem.
 This article explains how the danger could be in the gadgets that you
place on your site. Gadgets are little mini-applications that give you
additional functionality. But if a gadget it created by someone trying to
steal identities, it could give them access to your personal information.
 Social networking sites aren’t the only ones that use gadgets to add
functionality, either. Google’s personalized home page and now even
Windows Vista uses gadgets. Use caution when downloading or enabling
them, though, because you never know when you might be opening
your personal information up for collection.

Is Social Networking Good or Bad

Is social networking good or bad? It depends on who you ask. Social scientists and social psychologists enjoy the wealth of
opportunities that social networks provide for studying social building and situations on a grand scale. Social networks are
comprised of people, and they provide people with a way to connect with other people.

Social networks are neither good nor bad.

Researching Is Social Networking Good or Bad

In business, social networking is a good thing. According to Catherine Brown, director of Enterprise Social Networking for Dotster,
Inc., "A business social network is not like Facebook. It is the company's own community Web site (or a new tab on their current
Web site) branded with their logo and material and devoted to their customers' needs and interests."

Social networks on the web are community based and comprised of people. They are organized around users that log in and create
accounts. Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn and other networks encourage users to make friends, find old friends and add current
friends. Groups also form on these sites that allow like-minded people to connect and become friends. Friends of friends link
together and serve as effective outlets for distributing content that individual users enjoy, from YouTube videos to news stories to
reviews and more.

According to a 2007 research study social networks are the heart of popular sites on the Internet. The technology continues to
mature, and will continue to influence personal and commercial online interactions. Social networking is used by college students,
homemakers, business managers, actors, writers, researchers, teachers, directors, engineers, politicians and more.

Political Machine

During the 2008 Presidential election, social networks played a significant role for voters aged 18 to 29. A research study from the
Pew Research Center found that 42% of voters in that key demographic obtained their campaign news and updates from the
Internet, and more specifically social network sites.

Supporters for President Barack Obama number over five and a half million on Facebook alone. To get out the message, social
networks are better than community centers, town halls and phone banks. Politicians who grasp the power of the Internet can
harness it to reach a demographic of voters who are less likely to watch television advertisements and debates, but are more willing
to read position papers, post its and profiles.

Social in Social Networks

Trying to understand is social networking good or bad requires understanding that people are at the center of social networks.
People can be good or bad and social networks have the same capability for abuse. The ability for friends, business associates and
families to connect across the miles brings the world closer together. The same closeness allows for abuse, transmission of false
ideas, frauds and scams.

Recognizing the benefits of a social network is as important as exercising caution. A person wouldn't walk into the middle of a mall
and believe everything that sales person at a kiosk tells them, or take financial advice from a stranger in the coffee shop. This is the
same natural caution that must be exercised in all social networking interactions
