The Importance of Internet Socializing

Many people see internet sites such as facebook and myspace as a waste of time and as potentially dangerous venues for the children because of potential predators. However, in spite of these occasional occurrences, there are many positives that come from the internet. Specifically, people are able to communicate with others, and learn from their experiences. Overall, the internet is a very usefgul tool for communication.

One example of how the internet is positive is because people are able to communicate with other people that they may not be able to meet with regularly. Specifically, one of my friends does not go to our school anymore and because of this I don’t see him in real life, but I can still talk to him on the internet. Also, there are many other things that are positive such as an escape from real life, and also places like facebook and myspace serve as an area where people can meet. Specifically, their are many kids being interviewed in Tamar Lewin’s article. These kids are from the Bronx and they say that right when they get home from school, they go online.
In the end, the internet serves as social network for kids to be together and coexist with one another.
