Well I think that social networking is good for our society because it spreads information all around the world to give information to people.
We can use social media to inform people. Let say you want to write a letter to someone and post it but with social media you can just send it as a massage to his/her phone or email. Social media is helpful because we can get to know new things and see people's reflection. In the olden day they did not have that much technology but now we have more technology and more technology is still coming. We use social media to do our homework,to contact others and let other know what we can do to improve our work.
Social networking can be used for (sending messages,giving information to people, etc) In most of the years 67% of federal, state, and local law enforcement professionals surveyed think "social media helps solve crimes more quickly."
In 2011 the NYPD added a Twitter tracking unit and has used social networking to arrest criminals who have bragged of their crimes online. When the Vancouver Canucks lost the 2011 Stanley Cup in Vancouver, the city erupted into riots. Social media was used to catch vandals and rioters as social networking site users tagged the people they knew in over 2,000 photos posted to the sites. 59% of students with access to the Internet report that they use social networking sites to discuss educational topics and 50% use the sites to talk about school assignments. After George Middle School in Portland, OR introduced a social media program to engage students, grades went up by 50%, chronic absenteeism went down by 33%, and 20% of students school-wide voluntarily completed extra-credit assignments.
Social media sites help employers find employees and job-seekers find work. 64% of companies are on two or more social networks for recruiting because of the wider pool of applicants and more efficient searching capabilities. 89% of job recruiters have hired employees through LinkedIn, 26% through Facebook, and 15% through Twitter. One in six job-seekers credit social media for helping find their current job. 52% of job-seekers use Facebook for the job search, 38% use LinkedIn, and 34% use Twitter.
Social networking is good for the economy.Social media sites have created a new industry and thousands of jobs in addition to providing new income and sales. A McKinsey Global Institute study projects that the communication and collaboration from social media could add $900 billion to $1.3 trillion to the economy through added productivity and improved customer service. Facebook posted $1.26 billion for third quarter 2012 revenue, up from $954 million for third quarter 2011 earnings. Twitter, a private company, earned an estimated $350 million in 2012 revenue.

In conclusion I think social networking is good for the society because we use it for everything and in our life, its been use in school, to teach,and its use in works too Social Networking When analyzing the role of any media in our society, several questions arise. For instance, whether the specific media is helpful to us as individuals, whether the media can be used to enhance or intrude into our relationships with others, and whether or not the media can be.
