Social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace allow you to find and connect with
just about anyone. Browsing these sites can make you feel connected to a larger
community, but such easy, casual connection in an electronic environment can also have
its downside.

A False Sense of Connection s kt ni khng hp ly.

According to Cornell University's Steven Strogatz, social media sites can make it
more difficult for us to distinguish between the meaningful relationships we foster
in the real world, and the numerous casual relationships formed through social
media. By focusing so much of our time and psychic energy on these less
meaningful relationships, our most important connections, he fears, will weaken.

Cyber-bullying s tn cng ao
The immediacy provided by social media is available to predators as well as
friends. Kids especially are vulnerable to the practice of cyber-bullying in which
the perpetrators, anonymously or even posing as people their victims trust,
terrorize individuals in front of their peers. The devastation of these online attacks
can leave deep mental scars. In several well-publicized cases, victims have even
been driven to suicide.

While many businesses use social networking sites to find and communicate with
clients, the sites can also prove a great distraction to employees who may show
more interest in what their friends are posting than in their work tasks.

Privacy Bao m t
Social networking sites encourage people to be more public about their personal
lives. Because intimate details of our lives can be posted so easily, users are
prone to bypass the filters they might normally employ when talking about their
private lives. While at one moment a photo of friends doing shots at a party may
seem harmless, the image may appear less attractive in the context of an
employer doing a background check.
