Nowadays social networking sites have been made so simple absolutely anyone and everyone can use them, but is this really a good or a bad thing. I can see both sides to this argument and would like to know other peoples views on this topic. Here are a couple of my on thoughts just to show what I am meaning, feel free to add your own thoughts and ideas, just share your views. Good point:- Social networking allows people to find new friends, find old friends, ie. school, work etc. It also helps families keep in contact across the world, which can be invaluable. Bad point:- Social networks encourage more and more people to spend time online rather than meeting people face to face and physically interacting. These are just 2 sides to the coin, what are your views on this subject, do you feel networking has affected your life for the better or worse. Have a stress free day myLotters. PS , I will try and respond to as many comments as possible, thanks.

I think it has a place. I don't get out as much as I used to and this gives me a chance to not feel so isolated. (I am a cancer survivor and I only work a few hours a week now, but I used to have 2 jobs)

I understand what you mean when you say they can make you feel less isolated, especially if you cant get out and about so much. I never really thought of networking in that way, so thank you for bringing it into the discussion. Very interesting. Have a good calm day.
