Social Impact of IT

The social impact of IT has been greatly increased over the past decade I remember when Bebo and MSN first came out, everyone in school was on it in a matter of weeks back then I thought it was great that I could create my own profile and add my friends. Now a days there are more and more social network sites,  personally I can't really be bothered with them now. I think that if someone isn't on a social network site and there friends are it will effect the relationship between them, its come to the stage that IT plays a part in your personal relationships. In my opinion it shouldn't be the case that if your not online then you can be friends with someone. Do you think being online/or not online changes the relationship you have with your friends?

Potential threats in IT

With all the benefits of the Internet and social media there is also a dark side for example cyber bullying, this in the past few years has taken of even leading some people to suicide. This is unacceptable but i can't help but think why didn't they just delete there Facebook account or twitter if they were getting bullied.I feel that we ourselves have became obsessed about seeing what other people are doing as if we are comparing our lives to theirs. I'm not condoning the bullies in anyway I think more should be done to stop it, they just type the abusive language thinking they cant be touched they need to be proved wrong. Of course there are other dangers on the internet like virus's made to disrupt of even destroy your computer, steal your details and clean you bank account and of course like in the real world there are scams and con artists ready to steal from you. So like the world the internet can be a dangerous place.
