• To our generation Social Networking Sites are part of everyday life. Sites such as Linkin,
Facebook, Twitter, and programs such as iChat, AIM, and Adium have revolutionized the ways
in which people communicate.
• e-mail had replaced traditional mailing systems,
• messaging has replaced phone calls and
• wall posting has replaced even e-mails.
• Social Networking Sites bring together resources such as email, instant messaging, etc. in one
place. The convenience of this promotes fast and frequent communication. Facebook, for
example, houses a version of email, instant messaging, quick message posting, discussion
forums, picture albums, calendar and social information updates (mini-feed).
• Social Networking Sites have changed the way individuals communicate with the world,
however, everyday designers are finding new and innovative ways in which they can use the
sites to connect one person to the rest of society.
