Facebook - pros and cons

The NEW EXCITING thing for teenagers all way up to adults is FACEBOOK. Almost everyone I know, including my parents have a facebook. Facebook pages are great ways to communicate with friends, family members, co workers, and fellow classmates. By joining the Facebook network, you are open to a variety of usage materials, such as writting private messages, posting comments on a persons wall, and posting pictures for other people to view. Facebooks can be beneficial for students to keep in touch with eachother and for teachers to keep in touch with their co workers. Although facebook pages are a great way to communicate with people of importance to you, they are also very dangerous. Profile pictures can be posted on your facebook page, but sometimes people are not always who they "seem to be!" Every year predators get caught pretending to be someone they are not. For this reason, I have my facebook as private so only the people who i accept - "friends" can view my comments, pictures, and messages.
