We are living in an age of social
networking sites. They are supposed to help us, specifically in communication.
Nevertheless, they are now often being used for cheating. In spite of this, I
strongly argue that there are more positives than negatives in using these
sites.
The first argument against using
social networking sites is that some people can be cheated. This is because
people are able to counterfeit information by exaggerating stories easily. For
example, my friend was purchasing a camera on Facebook and he had to pay money in
advance about $400 and then swindler did not send a camera to him. This is
because he had not known whether which advertisements could be trusted. Furthermore,
concealment and security are two anxieties that can come with using such sites
such as Facebook, Twitter, and Line. Despite the fact we can erase pictures
that have been posted, people could still have saved them in just a few seconds.
For example, I posted an outrageous picture on Line at night 2 months ago but I
did not realize that until in the dawn. Therefore, people have to use these
sites cautiously. Additionally, people should be aware of using them excessively
because they can waste time. Regarding this problem, they are sitting in front
of a display so long and they can become isolated because they are always
chatting rather than going out together with their friends. Consequently, they
should go out to live an offline life and meet other friends face to face.
Nonetheless, it has not all been undesirable.
First of all, social networking sites have been used in many ways. For example,
my friend’s commercial company was successful because it became faster when
they were cooperating with other establishments through the Internet. Secondly,
people get to know others easily all over the world and also they are able to
find their friends that they have not met for a long time by using such sites.
For example, I had never met one of my primary school friends for so long a
time but finally we could find each other again by using Facebook. Another an imperative
opinion is that people can know current occasions easily such as from a news
feed on Instagram or from some news pages on Facebook. For instance, I could recognise
the announcements from medical schools about examinations by using them.
In assumption, social networking
sites have given us the prospective to influence our goals easier than in the previous.
Conversely, we should not let ourselves become addicted to them.
