12 million viewers watched the final episode of The Sopranos, one social
networking site, MySpace, gets more than 70 million visitors each month.
From sharing photos to business cards, online social networking has
become the "it" thing to do, for good reason. Home and work life
today for many of us involves harried schedules, information overload
and a lack of what we as humans tend to crave most: interaction with
other humans. Our insatiable appetite for all things electronic, from
cell phones and portable music players to home shopping via television
and the internet, brings the world to us at the touch of our fingertips,
but can also contribute to a sense of isolation. To overcome it, we can
turn again to electronics for a way to stay in touch with friends,
business associates and loved ones through online social networking. Social
networking websites
offer a sense of community, a place where you can connect with others
who share your interests, passions or goals. This is their primary goal
and as our society evolves more and more employers, love interests and
friends are turning to these sites to fulfill one of our basic needs in
life. One of the main reasons that online social networking is so popular (versus in-person networking) is that you don't have to leave your home or office to do it. There are other benefits to online social networking too, you can carefully cultivate and polish your online presence to present the best possible you. Many employers are now looking at social networking sites to view the type of employee they might be hiring, never has so much rested on the way you present your 'personal' life. The line between business and personal life has started to blur with the creation and the popularity of these social networking sites. Thanks for stopping by!
