“Facebook and Google+”

Social Networks such as Facebook and or Google + Have been becoming very popular the last few years. These sites have a wide variety of people who use it and they use it for different reasons too. You have a very wide range of people’s age. It could go from 13 years old to let’s say around 65 year olds. There are also businesses that use Facebook.

Facebook is a very popular social networking site. It was founded on February 4, 2004. It has grown a lot since then. Anyone can create a Facebook; you just need to have a valid email address so they can send you stuff when you get notification and when you have reminders .People use Facebook for different reasons. Some use it to be able to see what their old and new friends are up to, also to stay in touch with people that you don’t see often. I would assume that college kids love Facebook because it allows them to stay connected to their friends from high school without having to be living like five minutes away. It allows you to see what the person is done or has done by seeing what photos they have posted. Facebook also allows you to know what a person likes, you can see what movies, shows, music and what sports they like to do.

Facebook can be a very dangerous site People put too much of their personal information up on Facebook which allows people to know everything about you. You may think that it doesn’t matter because all my friends already know this stuff but more than just your friends can look at what you post.  So sometimes it’s not safe.

Facebook can be used by businesses too. Businesses use Facebook to have a free advertisement for their business. A business can create a page which allows people to like it and have whatever they post pop up on their dashboard.

Facebook can also be used for entertainment because you are able to like pages of shows you like and have previews of what will happen next week on the latest episode.

News isn’t that common on Facebook because it is not really used to figure out what the weather will be or if there was just a crime. The only exception would be if someone your friend posts about something that happened then that would be the way you would find out. Facebook can be recreational because you can have the option of playing games through Facebook.
