"To Facebook or Not to Facebook?"

My first impressions on Facebook are that it is a scial network that allows people to talk with their friends and family over the computer.  Also, that it is a great way to reconnect with old friends.  The benefits of Facebook are that what I have already said, it''s a great way to connect with friends and family.  The risks of using Facebook is that once you start using it and start "liking" pages, your information is set throughtout the internet.  Also, your personal life, like photos, statuses, and friends are shown on your page.  By the reading the article, "Why Facebook Is After Your Kids", by Emily Bazelon, it showed me that Facebook has many tricks to it.  Once you have liked a page, they can tell what else you would like.  Also I learned that Facebook makes their money from ads on your own page.
