Facebook has got to be my favourite social media tool.
It helps me keep in touch with friends regardless of where I am in the world. It’s so easy because this media tool allow us to drop a message on their profile ‘walls’ which appear very casual and spontaneous. It is definitely a way to reconnect with friends whom we are not very close back in earlier days.
In addition to that, we can be updated with our friend’s lives by browsing through their photo albums or even be notified of the Facebook games that they are playing. There is also a live chat service that allows us to communicate in real time.
There have been massive debates on the privacy issue in Facebook as users are increasingly putting their lives on the internet. I strongly believe that there is a fine line between private and public on what we put on our Facebook profiles.
