Pros and Cons of Facebook ~ Chapter 7

Facebook has its pros and cons.

Pros

Facebook is a great way to stay in touch with family and friends – one can even find friends from high school, grammar school, or other activities or groups one was in.

One can find classmates to get assignments, or even make plans for group projects.

One can start talking to one’s new roommate before entering the new school year – I have a better feeling on who one will be living with.

One can sell books.

Facebook is entertaining with all the applications that are available.

The list can go on.

Cons

Facebook profiles contain too much information that others can obtain easily. Even with private settings, pictures that friends post that are not under privacy settings are open to the public to view.

When one gets older, one needs to be careful what was said and put up, because jobs are looking into it.
