Team Edward vs. Team Jacob Ning [] "Social Networking"

One of the advantages of use Social Networking is the low costs. It’s cheaper to use online networking for personal and business, because most of them are free. Also it is a great tool to learn about likes and dislikes of others. It is awesome at the moment of create advertisements. Furthermore, using social networking, you can get connected with people inside your class, their friends, and their families.

The most important is that you can most do whatever you like; post videos, make comments about different topics, make comparisons between two topics, create critics, do arguments, create advertisements, load photos, load videos, create blogs, be part of forums discussions, encourage group activities….

 One of the disadvantages discussed in class was the lack of anonymity. Because the students put out information about their names, location, ages, genders and many other information that they may not want to let others know. Also, can be use for harassment, cyber-stalking, online scams, and identity theft.  Remember that one of the key of social networking is to be fun. As a networking creator try always to have it up to date. Do not let your clients start felling boring.

I recommend Ning, because is a social networking where you can easily discuss on different topics, share information and exchange files. But I did not find in it a place where we can grade the students.  Other advantage of Ning is that you can take your message all over the world and easily get expert advices on any challenge you may face related to your topic of interest!!!

But for bad luck now we have to pay for use it =(.
