Social Networking

Social networking can be used in various ways. Especially if one is looking to further its business. For instance employers and recruiters can use a social media as a tool to recruit candidates. In the article Social Networking Technology Boosts Job Recruiting, Maureen Crawford-Hentz a recruiter at Osram Sylvania, states "Social networking technology is absolutely the best thing to happen to recruiting — ever." Using sites such as LinkedIn allows recruiters to find potential employees in a matter of minutes. This technology greatly impact society, more jobs mean more money, more money means more spending, more spending means more job openings. A better economy is a better society, it's a cycle. Although social networking has its benefits there's always a dark side. Privacy, plays a big role in social media. People are able to steal others identity or even re-sharing their photo. For example, in the article Facebook Privacy Is So Confusing Even the Zuckerberg Family Photo Isn't Private, a stranger, who isn't  Zuckerberg friend had gotten access to one of her family photo. This goes to shows social media privacy isn't so private after all. 

I believe that the revolution of technology is going to change our economy for the better. As technology advances newer jobs opportunities will increase; meaning that new generation will introduce jobs that doesn't exist now. Every new job means a better economy. However, people have to be more mindful and aware of the things that they post. Sad to say once your involved with social media your profile isn't considered private anymore.
