Can someone help me with my social networking site essay? - Jen - 10-11-2012 11:51 PM
I have to write an essay on a topic my choice. I am choosing to write about social networking sites. I need sources ( preferably internet sources) and starting points please. If at all possible, maybe you can point me in the right direction to some of my questions below.
1. How do social networking sites change the nature of privacy?
2. What are some of the dangers of a person using a social networking site?
3. How can the dangers of using a social networking site be prevented?
4. Compare and Contrast a person that uses a social networking site and one that doesn't.
Key points:
What are the advantages that the person has using a social networking site?
What are the disadvantages that the person has using a social networking site?
What are the advantages of a person not using a social networking site?
What are the disadvantages of a person not using a social networking site?
* I am not asking you to do my homework. I only want reliable sources, advice, and help.
* When I say " Social networking sites" I mean sites like Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter.
