Social networks don’t necessarily have to exist online. Actually, social networks existed way before the internet. Even without Facebook, Wikipedia and twitter, social networks existed within societies that could regulate the flow of information, change the meaning of information and influence behavior. Describe these “old school” networks and what happened to them as a result of new media networks. Argue your point of view and explain the positive and negative effects of social networking on society.
