Is social networking safe?With much With much deliberation, this topic has become a very interesting argument.What people must understand is that social networking should not just be seen as an enemy but should be more focused on how it can also be a person’s best friend as well with communication/interaction. It is given in Clive Thompson’s, “I’m So Totally, Digitally, Close to You,” that “people are so often changed by the use of technology”(Thompson-p.168-177).
Book Review: Contagious; Why Things Catch On Abstract With the rise of the internet, the term viral has become its own definition and has itself, become viral. Even with today’s version, social epidemics have been around as long as society itself. The phenomenon is interesting in its own right as it says something how we interact. To understand how social epidemics work, it can hold a great value because when something goes viral the effect has a big impact on behavior and the bottom line of an item.

Now there are also some empathetic tools that Facebook has for Facebook user for social networking. So in my opinion I would say that it really needs to have some empathetic tools in Facebook to make some feelings in users mind about their post. There are so many points to hold about with reason, I am holding with a point. According to Mr. Bejar, “The way our brain work, we have evolve to understand each other by tone of voice or seeing facial expressions, but that gets lost through the devices we use to communicate.” I am strongly appreciated with this because it’s very true nowadays. When we talk with people in real face to face we can show so many expressions also we can share our feelings by our expression as well but in Facebook it’s all about commenting and posting that can never make others feel what and how and which way we feel that time.
One reason a Public Service Announcement serves as an effective means for awareness against distracted driving is because of the impact that social media has a on today's society making it very beneficial for attracting attention to the subject. Some ways this can be done are through advertisement on commercials, internet, Facebook, or any well know sites that are popular among the youth. A PSA can be very effective if executed properly.
