Peace all. We meet again in this blog. At this time, we, Kamikaze will take you to explore or learn about one of the most popular mode of communication today, social networking. Before that, i will explain what is communication.
Communication is the most popular Internet activity, and its impact cannot be overestimated. At a personal level, friends and family can stay in contact with one another even when seperated by thousands of miles. At a business level, electronic communication has become a standard, and many times preferred, way to stay in touch with suppliers, employees, and customers.
Communication is very important in the world today. Without communication we will miss important information.
OK. Now I will explain what is social networking.
One of the fastest-growing uses of the Internet is social networking, or connecting individuals to one another. Three basic categories of social networking sites are :
- Reuniting sites
Designed to connect people who have known one another but have lost touch, for example, an old high school friend that you have not seen for several years. You join a social network by connecting to a reuniting site and providing profile information such as your age, gender, name of high school and so forth. With this information, members are able to search you.
- Friend-of-a-friend sites
Designed to bring together two people who do not know one another but share common friend. The theory is that, if you share a common friend, then it is likely that you would become friends.
- Common interest sites
