Social networking provides both advantages and disadvantages. It allows one to connect with others around the world at low cost, find jobs, and stay in touch with distant friends and family. However, social networking can also be time consuming and lead to scams, harassment, and health issues if overused. In particular, heavy social media use has been shown to increase feelings of isolation and addiction among youth.
