Interview
• Do you think social networking is beneficial or detrimental in today's society? Evidence?
Social networking is a good way for individuals to become connected by their similar values; however, sometimes individuals become negatively influenced by these strong connections. I believe happens more often on all the social networking websites on the internet. Websites that encourage social networking, I think, is just asking for violations and negative experiences.
