Facebook

                I joined Facebook when I was twelve years old.  I have a Facebook because I like to keep in touch with friends and family that live in other states. I also like to talk to friends over summer vacation and keep in touch with them through my Facebook account.  I am not obsessed with Facebook, unlike some people who check their account hourly; but I do go on Facebook about two to three times a week. The positives to having a Facebook are that you are able to talk outside of school and still keep in touch with other people you may not see regularly. Also, you are able to use Facebook as a tool to meet and talk to new people. There are negatives to having a Facebook as well as there are positives. Some negatives may include that people do not realize that there are younger viewers and that their statuses and photos may not be appropriate for them to see.  But, in my opinion some of the children joining Facebook should have waited until they were older.  Although, posting pictures may be a good thing, so people can see how you have changed if they haven’t seen you in a while. Another negative to Facebook is that some people over use it and you have to deal with their annoying statuses and or pictures. Many people have their own opinion of Facebook.  I personally like it because you are able to show other people how you are doing and see how other people are doing. I think Facebook is more useful to people who have moved out of their home town and graduated from their schooling, because they don’t see their friends as regularly as they used to.  The one last thing I have to say about Facebook is that younger viewers don’t know how to use it. Younger children abuse it and are most likely straight up annoying with their statuses. I personally love Facebook accept, I don’t like all the drama that goes along with it.
