I will appologize up front if this is repeat thread. I am sorry.
I realize that this could go into the World Politics section, but I thought that it was a better choice to put it into the Media section.



I have recently realized just how big a thing social networking is to the USA and the rest of the world. I am afraid that sometime in the ver near future, your job may depend on if you have a cell phone, a Twitter, or Facebook page, and coluntless other things that further social networking. I was wondering if others of you had the same fears or if you think that the world will never come to that. If you think the later, I dearly hope that you are right.

I LOVE FACEBOOK
i do not think your job in the future will depend on having a facebook or twitter page, but a cell phone will probably be a good thing to have for some jobs... but most people who are old enough to have a job have a cell phone anyway

I think so. I think this might happen, but for jobs involving sewage and garbage disposal wouldn't need it. Many careers would require a Twitter or FaceBook page. Yes, it is possible, but I don't think that would be a problem.

I like Facebook and that's it. Twitter and Myspace suck.

Facebook killed Myspace.

I doubt a job would depend on social networking . Social Networking is for catching up with friends , making new friends and to kill time . I don't think jobs would depend on Social Networking.

I sincerely doubt that it would come to anything like that; I don't think your employer wants to know everything about you in their respective News Feed and whatnot. However, the increase in these types of communication are really just people Cyber-stalking others. :P

I doubt a thirteen year old kid would know that companies have FaceBook pages and some companies' employees are encouraged to use Social Networking sites to keep up-to-date on any company changes. This is usually for employees who work at home.

I guess, that you could live two-thirds of your entire life at home if you don't have to go to work.

well You Tube is also considered social networking, and youtube is the one i prefer. Probably just because im used to it the most, there are alot of douches on youtube though :/ people who leave rude and false responses on your videos or to your comments you make on videos.

In Cyprus, where i am currently living because it's a second world country still, ALL businesses, newly formed or who have a name USE facebook as a free way to advertise. Not only that, sadly enough IT WORKS.


I use facebook to keep in touch with friends an relatives back in England, apart from that, i have no need for it, i don't believe you will NEED it to get a job tho.

I can't see someone going to Donald trump for a job, and him asking:

"Hey, Do you have Twitter?"
"Errr, No Sorry, Whats Twitter?"
"YOU'RE FIRED!"

=/ very unlikely but the future is a scary one, and only fate controls it for us.
