Social media really did hit the world by storm as it made socializing easier and strengthened the bond of friendship btw people regardless of where they are on earth.
There are alot of social media websites today, some of the most common ones are facebook, twitter, linked in, goggle plus pinintrest ...etc
As good as this social networks are, there are also certain things you need to be aware of and try not to do when using them.
1, Don't give out Personal info About Yourself on Social Networks
Not everybody on social networks are not there to make friends, some of them are there to steal sensitive info that you leave for them on line about you.
Avoid putting things like your full house address, phone numbers any anything that could be used to trace or scam you.
The other day i got a call from someone who called my name and address and then attempted to dupe me with some fake business idea. Thank God for giving me the wisdom to outsmart him. They almost had me convinced because of the familiarity the seemed to have with me.
Also note that Its not everything that happens in your house that is meant to be posted on Facebook or what ever social media you are using.
2 Don't spend your Whole Day on Social Networks
Social media are meant to be some kind of online meeting place where socializing takes place. Unfortunately, some people have turned it to a place of abode, they practically leave their whole lives there, they no longer have time for there studies, and issues pertaining to achieving their life goals.
If you do a little research, you will observe that Academic performance keeps dropping as the years go by, and if we want to be honest with our selves we'll realize that the abuse of social media is partly responsible for this.
Well, i just thought i make a quick post on this issue and i hope someone out there reading this will take this post really seriously and act on which ever area that apply to you.
Take Care.
