Social network is very good service, if we know how to use it correctly. It helps people to share their thoughts in public and to find social groups where they fit in. If we want to share about our personal life it is up to us to decide whether it right or not, by keeping in mind the disadvantages it can lead to.

The social network is the Network of Number of Peoples or Groups means it provides them a way to exchange their thoughts, knowledge, messages so that we can conclude social networks increase Awareness among the people and stay them connect for eg facebook, twitter etc.
On the other hand, it has also some issues that are the issues of privacy, security as we see that some nonserious Peoples uses images of others and make fake Accounts and start publishes some Vulgar things that send the wrong message to society in the form of violence, against the dignity of peoples of the country etc.
So we need to be aware of all its pros and cons so that how we can use Social media in the right way with responsible manner.
Overall friend message is If their is rose then there is thorn also.

Social networks are the new way of communication for example Facebook, Myspace, Orkut and much more.
Everyone is sharing pictures, day to day activity, thoughts about issues, personal problems etc. on the social network. As well as people are communicating with each other through social networking sites. Few people are exploiting social networking sites by spying on others life. Few cases have been reported where robbers and thieves were spying on victims through social networking sites. So one should take care of what he/she is sharing on social network. Its own responsibility that to not share anything personal which can create problems.
Public sharing of private lives has not led to a rethinking of anything. It's just reminded people to use extreme caution when publicly sharing their private lives. If you wouldn't do something in front of everyone you know, don't do it on the internet.
The Internet is popular due to freedom of speech. Few groups are asking that social networking sites should be banned. If the government would ban social networking sites then the internet will not be free. People will not share their lives or communicate with others and the internet will loose its charm.
Humans are social animals by nature and social networks are just one other outlet for humans to interact. We should not look at social networks as threats but as opportunities for us to interact with people globally. I myself am an active user of social networks and have made many friends and business contacts online that I would otherwise not have had the same level of opportunity or interaction.

Social networking sites are a complete waste of time. Youth is wasting their precious time on these social networking sites so these sites should be banned.
A guy who posted a video on YouTube weightlifting, skiing, and performing karate exhibitions. He was fired from his job for showing too much Bravado.
There was one incident where robbers using user's geolocation on Facebook to find out when the target is at home or not.
Unlike other human social interactions which are transient, e.g. talking to friends over lunch etc, the Internet keeps a permanent record of what we say to each other. If you are having an online conversation with your friend(s) then you should be aware that conversation can be seen by countless others and that a record of that conversation will be kept somewhere on the Internet. Indeed, now with some social networks introducing geo-location services a record of where we go and how long we spend there will also be maintained.
Social-networking sites allow seemingly trivial gossip to be distributed to a worldwide audience, sometimes making people the butt of rumors shared by millions of users across the Internet.
Public sharing of private lives has led to a rethinking of our current conceptions of privacy.
Existing law should be extended to allow some privacy protection for things that people say and do in what would have previously been considered the public domain.
People need to be aware of the environment within which they are communicating to others. If you are discussing things in a public forum then all that information is available to everyone else in that forum. Therefore they should take a common sense approach to what they should and should not discuss. In the real world, we only talk about sensitive issues when we are in private and with people we trust. I think though that when people are online they can fall into a false sense of security because there are physically in a secure place using their computer either in their office or their home which results in them divulging information they should not.
Conclusion
The social network is indeed a boon for the human race as it is bringing people closer and letting them communicate with each other without any fear and barrier. But still, one need to be cautious of what level of personal information they are revealing on social networks.

I believe social media is good and bad.
The reasons for social media is that I believe that it is a great way to communicate and to share what you are up to, however, there are a few bad points to weigh this out. The main bad issue I think there is an addiction. Nowadays all are constantly spending time on their phones, but they don't know any different, that is just simply how they were brought up. There are issues with safety, people should always have their accounts on private and should never share personal details, but the only way, they will understand this, if they are educated how to stay safe online and what would happen if they didn't.
But you can't say social media is all that bad because everything has dangers.

It's up to you how you use it.
But we get current information on the social network. We can share our views, thoughts, ideas with known and unknown people also.

Social networks share the knowledge, about current affairs, politics, new technology, and also it is one kind of library book we are having nowadays. Using social networks in a right manner gives wisdom and knowledge. On the other hand, many people use these social networks for passing their valuable time, chatting and etc. It will effect on their career.

Social media is the best way through which people can communicate each other. We can connect to friend always, sharing our idea information and knowledge. We can make groups for knowledge sharing. Many of the people react on social issues that which open the eyes of authority. These are some of the benefits. But if users misuse it then it becomes anti-social site. Online platforms are changing the way Indians today are finding love. A large number of the fake account that use for illegal matter etc. So we the users have responsibility to choose the way that which guide you success.
