Thesis StatementThesis Statement
The social networking site, Facebook, is changing the way people communicate and socialize with others. Many people no longer use face-to-face contact or past communication technology as a way to speak to another person. Facebook is fast becoming a cultural norm to connect with family, friends, or business associates online in a group setting. There are several advantages and disadvantages to using Facebook. Upon researching these differences, I will discover what draws people to use this site. Some lack the knowledge on how to properly use it and often reveal too much about their identity without thinking of the repercussions. Facebook since its conception continues to grow and expand our ability to reach greater distances and assists us with finding people with like-minded interests. This social networking site enhances our social desire to use Web 2.0 technology even more.
