I personally believe that the third article was very insightful. I would never have thought that social networking, something that is supposed to expose you different people and ideas, would cause you to become narrow minded.

  3. Yes I think that they will also be badly affected. Social networking sites is a part of our life and when it's taken away from us, it's like taking away a hand or a leg and we'll feel very disabled. Many of us use these sites to kill boredom, contact friends easily and get information quickly. So when you take away these sites, it will be very difficult for them to adjust to the new ways to do these things thus making their life harder so they'll be affected badly as well.

  4. Do you suppose that it would affect them for a very long time or just a short period of time?
