Many social network services have been so prominent in our lives that they almost occupied much of our pastime with hours of unproductive idling. Although social networking aims to build online communities of people to help groups of people interact with others, this service does little to accommodate us with quality relationships. It is as if everything becomes superficial and quantity now overrides quality in terms of creating a relationship with others. As social network programs have been established and gained much popularity to date, a mass demographic of people have been so beguiled by this medium that many of us do not realize what a quality relationship is anymore. This is a huge social issue in our communities today that must be addressed in our generation. This setback can be reversed by replacing online networking with face-to-face networking although what social network services offer is convenience to busy people who cannot afford to meet with others many of the times. Such networking services include Facebook, Twitter, and many more, which I will be focusing on to examine the positive and negative impacts associated with social networks. Also, I hope to analyze and discuss whether social networks are indeed "better or worse than the real thing."
