Emerging Technology-

Facebook is an online social networking site. It is great for connecting with people from high school, long distance friends, and family. Facebook was started by a group of Harvard students trying to connect with each other online and from there it has grown by millions of profiles around the globe. Facebook allows people to create a profile. This profile can include a main photo, basic information about themselves, interests, as well as photo albums. Applications have grown very popular recently with users being able to take surveys, play games, as well as many other things. Facebook can be a useful tool for connecting with other teachers or parents to share information about teaching methods, curriculum, or other important information.

I have used Facebook for over four years. It can be addicting at times because there is a constant desire to look at people's profiles and photos, which can lead to looking at more profiles and more photos. I use it primary to connect with college friends to talk about upcoming events and class, as well as connect with people from my high school and hometown. It is a great tool that many people visit daily.
