Social Networking
Chances are, you and your friends don’t use the term “social networking.”
You might say, “I’m using MySpace” or“I’m updating my blog.”
Web sites like blogs, wikis, Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, and Ning all allow users to create their own content and/or to connect with other people.
You may also hear this called “Web 2.0” or the “Read/Write Web.”
Lumping these kinds of sites together by referring to them as “social networking
sites” can give some adults the impression that these sites are used mostly for meeting people you don’t know, which is not usually the case.
