It’s
Really Not that Serious…..
Social
netwoking is something that has become so popular nowadays, whether it be
children or adults. The first article
that I found talks about how “social networking sites, while they include the ability to post
written material to the web like blogs do, revolve much more around the ability
of an individual to build a web "presence" and to create visible links
with others in the network.” In simple
terms this is a good thing. Almost any
and everything that anyonw can think anbout can be done on the web, so if your
able to make yourself look good on the web there is no telling how much ot can
or cannnot help you. The site also talks about how “many parents understand the appeal of
social networking sites, as they are used to the lengths that youth will go to
receive attention--whether positive or negative”, this is funny! Yea I bet
parents do understand it more and more because they are beginning to become a
part of it. There are so many parents
that are on facebook alone, like my father lol.
The second article talks about whether blogging is negative or positive,
because since everything is a the tap of a key what if someone is looking for a
job and their potential employer decideds to do a little research. The fact that you took interest to something
and decided to do this in your free time can either hurt or help you. The blog
states that “one blogger posted recently that he lies in
interviews. That wouldn't thrill a prospective employer if they knew about it.
Another job seeker's blog mentions that she loves to party all night, drinks to
excess on a regular basis, and steals on occasion. Again, not a profile that
would thrill most employers.” Now in this case this blogger was just not smart
about what he was putting out on the web, but I guess you can give him credit
for being honest?!?!?!?!? My personal opinion
is I watch what I do and say because someone either has a tape recorded or a
camera. Too many people have access to
the web and I personally don’t need anyone raining on my parade anytime soon!
But it ahs impacted my life some what I can’t go two days without at least
checking my facebook and twitter lol, and now my blog!
