Social Networks

Social networks (Social media) are a very useful tool for these times, because technology has changed the world, people use these apps to communicate with their families or share their interesting moments we should learn how to use these things. In this blog entry I’m going to explain the most important aspect of social media; then, I’ll share the advantages and disadvantages of social media; and lastly, 2 negative aspects of social media.

In this case, the most important aspect of social networks Is that  we can Interact with other people: with family, friends or people from all over the world.  We must know how to use social networks because nobody knows who Is behind the screen, I don’t accept requests from someone I don't know, and I don't put personal information on my networks, These things offer you security. They have a reliable security system and I feel that social networks have given me that opportunity to improve my communication skills. I consider that I use social networks correctly, For now I haven’t had any bad experiences, I only have family members and friends as contacts.

The advantages of these networks Is that you can see any content on Facebook, You can see videos, there are games on Facebook, you can challenge someone in those games, you can also upload content of your favorite moments or things, and make video calls, etc. But there Is a dark side to this. Many hackers who want to steal your privacy to know who you are to be able to extort you. Also, for online sales, there are scammers who tell you yes but in reality the product goes wrong and you lose money. There are also kidnappers behind the screens who makes friends with children in games, facebook, etc, This case is common in some countries and  my advice is that we have to be with our children so that they can use social networks without any problem.

In my opinion, there are 2 negative aspects of social networks and these are: waste of time and addiction. Social networks taken away our time to do more important things and lower our skills and knowledge, I used to see my social networks for more than 3 hours, but now I have had a change, I dedicate more time to my studies. Lastly, addiction to social networks Is a very bad thing. I used to be addicted to networks but I changed, This Is not healthy at all,  because social networks are for entertainment, not to be on the phone all day.

Let's use social networks responsibly and safely and if you have children, make sure they don't use them for anything bad, They can be used to watch videos, and see posts. Let's make the best use of technology.
