Before reading the article I knew that it was about social networking websites online. Most people today are very busy. These busy people often do not have time to keep in touch with friends. Social Networks online help people to keep in touch with the people that they can no longer talk to on a normal basis.
After reading the article i learned about a young woman named Anna Owens. In the beginning Anna was on myspace. Overtime she became bored with the site and she and all her friends moved onto another site called facebook. Over time Anna stopped using myspace entirely. Anna states that there is a significant class divide online. "A recent study by market research firm Nielson Claritas found that people in more affluent demographics are 25 percent more likely to be found on facebook, while the less affluent are 37 percent more likely to connect to myspace." Over time as new and more imroved social network sites are created, more people will change to other networks or they will all eventually grow up and stop using these networking sites all together.
