Week 7 Facebook

And we come to the mother of them all... Facebook!
Imagine a world without it... its only been around for the last 5 years or so but where would we be without it now!
I like facebook for the simple reason that you can keep in touch easily with friends and family that may live away. I am a little over it though, and I wonder how many others will b over it soon too. Mayb in 10 years the numbers will have dropped?
It is worrying how school kids use it though. They arent aware (or dont see the threat) in the dangers related with social media including cyberstalking, cyberbullying, fraud, peer pressure, media pressure etc. Some of the littlies are just too young.
So all in all, Facebook has both pros and cons but one thing is for sure, it has been one of the biggest influences on social media and culture EVER!
