social networks

I think social networks have really affected my life both in positive and negative ways. When I was just in third grade I started using AIM which is a network where you can IM your friends. AIM was extremely cool back then and everyone had a screen name. Right when I got home I would run to my computer and log right on and stay on there for hours. The next social network that I began to use is myspace. Everyone knows about myspaces because it was just so popular. I would spend so many hours on this site. It was always fun to see whose tops you were on and read other peoples comments. If you were a nosey person this site could keep you occupied for hours. Another fun thing to do on myspace was to decorate your profile with different backgrounds and change the music you wanted to play when people went  on your myspace. I always enjoyed looking at people’s profiles. The latest social network that I am using is facebook. Facebook is a good time. I love looking and pictures that people posts they are always so interesting to look at. I also like to read everybody’s status however it is extremely annoying when one person posts a bunch of status and just blows up my news feeds. I log on to my Facebook every day when I get home. Whenever I am bored I log on and just look at peoples conversations and pictures. These social netwroks have really affected my life.  These social networks always keep me busy when I am bored. Another thing that is positive about these social networks is that they allowed me to connect with my family that lives in Florida, Arizona and Georgia. It is so nice to be able to see pictures of them since I do not see them often. A negative way that the social networks have affected me is the fact that I spent so much time on the computer when I should have probably been studying for a test or quiz.
