Social Network is required and should use the platform to the advantage. It's required as long as Social Networking is maintained clean, safe and healthy as long as it doesn't cause damage to self and others. Addiction is only for those who have plenty of time on hand and has nothing to do. If some one is busy running for his goals..has little time for other things. cheers good day

Man is a social animal and needs contact with other humans. Networking sites cater to this need and hence is good. Addiction is a bad state, where one is critically dependent on non-life sustaining thing and hence is to be avoided. However, with such new concepts, the line between addiction and deep interest is unclear and one would need to wait and watch before we can define certain behaviour as addiction...

Social networking is good if it remains in its own limits and does not eat into the lives of the youth. It should by no means become a prime activity for the person. If immediately after waking up the person rushes to switch on the PC to tweet his latest thoughts then this behavior should immediately be checked. There is a large and beautiful life outside and a person should always give himself or herself sufficient amounts of solitude. And it is in solitude that we get the most refined thoughts. There should be a well monitored balance between life inside and outside of social networking. Social networking should under no circumstance become an addiction.

My answer to your question is "Addiction is already a negative word. Even a layman will say How an addition to any stuff can be good?", because addition takes over the control of your mind from you and deprives you of normal relationship contributions by making you think about your interest all the time. Now talking about social networking, I would say social networking on internet is nothing less than a wonder making people from different regions separated by large distances to come along and explore each others ideas like you and me doing here. Social networking becomes favorite past time of people fond of making friends and having internet connections at their places, people finding internet a fun game like video games, people who are introvert and feel shy to speak at public places so they find social networking sites best place to communicate without being face to face hence spending more time here. No doubt networking at internet bring some or more positive things to the lives of these people but excessive use of internet will just damage their life, will interfere will theirs relationships, work, households etc. It will make everyone say "If you don't bother about us then why should we care about you, go to hell with your internetworking". Believe me, try it you will come to know by yourself. I conclude social networking addiction is not good for your emotional self.

There is a lot of learning to know abt an attitude a person of excellent attitude the usal world cannot conquer him because he is superior to that. our activities and our life cannot be taken by some practices if we have a right attitude Today Face Book has come and Tommorow to attract world "A Book" may come of Real stories do u we think if we have right attitude does this over come us No. In short we can overcome world and worst things provided our attitude must be of ethical , divine and self esteemed one. we must not blame world but blame individual.

Nice topic heading, :). Any type of addiction is not good by its very nature, and it will definitely have a toll on our health, work and life in general. Social networking tends become a nuisance after a certain limit, with people starting to pile up tons of crap information in the world of Internet where we already have a lot of it. It does serve as a source of good information when used with the objective of sharing some good info., otherwise who wants to know what you did at a party last night or whether you just washed your face.....
