Social networking sites

Facebook? Friendster? Myspace? Do these ring a bell in you? Yup, you are right. They are social networking sites and are known to be the top few out of many other sites. Social networking sites are places for people to get to know and communicate with one another. It also focuses on building online communities of people who share interests or activities, or who are interested in exploring the interests and activities of others and are being used regularly by millions of people. But many people used these social networking sites for their own benefits like promoting their own business or trying to sell some items. One band got famous by promoting themselves in these sites. I cannot blame these people for doing so as these social networking sites are places where many people visits, therefore are good places for sellers to advertise their goods.
Social networking sites are also not a good place for people to make friends as people can hide their identity. They are "evil-hearted" in reality but try to be nice to you in these social networking sites and would even ask you out. Then they show their true colours. Though such cases are not frequent, we must not let down our guards and only add those we know. I had encounter such cases, people trying to make you givve your credit card number to them. So be wary of who you add as friends and what information you put.
