Web
2 is used to share information whether it be through a blog/ wiki/ or
other service.
One
of the web 2 tools that I am familiar with is Twitter. I have been on
twitter for about a year and mainly use it to read what celebs are
getting up to. It can be very useful in many ways but also very
dangerous.
Advantages:
→ Free
→ Can
link with other social networks to find your friends
→ Simple,
easy to navigate around
→ Can
'retweet' messages for everyone to read
→ Business
owners- can inform people about offers/events etc
→ 'trending'-
can type in a word on search bar and see what other people are
writing about that subject
Disadvantages:
→ Children
are vulnerable and may contact the wrong people
→ limited
to 140 characters in 1 post
→ Cannot
post videos only links
→ unsure
who is reading your tweets
I
know that twitter is very useful to most people to contact their
friends/ colleagues/ customers but only if it is used in the right
way. If not then it can be very dangerous and get a lot of people in
trouble as everyone around the world can see your tweets!
