"The Social Network"-a boon or a bane?

Talking about the present days,we will be lucky enough to find people who are not into the social networks.
The social networks nowadays are contradicting their own vision for which they are meant to be.If we take the example of one of the famous social networks then it was actually meant to connect the people in a particular community which is now doing most of its business there by selling Ads and etc.
Talking about the "Youngsters",most of the young minds enter a social network just to get famous and to be known by the people for which they post hell lot of irrelevant things on the web also the stuffs which has nothing to do with them or I will say  
Kids and teenagers growing up, have no sense of manners in a public forum. 
The days are not to far when there will be classes and seminars on "How to use the social networks".
As we know everything has both good and a bad side social networks allows teachers and professors are making groups to extend classroom discussion to posting assignments, tests and quizzes, to assisting with homework outside of the classroom setting and there are instances where a group of people were rescued from the Guerrillas only by the help of a Facebook post as mentioned in the book "The Facebook Effect" by David Kirkpatrick.
so i will end up with the words "Think before you Click".

  1. Very well written.

    I agree one must not post indiscriminately, or even share/forward posts without thinking, as one will be known by what one posts. And if you post frivolously, people will have an image of you that you may not like. Besides, people may just prefer to skip your posts :-)
