Social networks: danger, big business or simply big chance?


Social Networks are part of our daily life and their usage is still growing dramatically. It doesn’t matter if we are talking about Facebook, Twitter or Google+, in general everybody is connected through the World Wide Web and exchanging personal data. In this talk I like to address the advantages and disadvantages of Social Networks. Are Social Networks evil or do they help us to enhance our digital and virtual life?

Furthermore a look to an upcoming and growing generation (often called net generation) will be done and how they are dealing with Facebook & Co.

The talk concludes with some interesting facts, mainly the change of the whole human society through mobile technologies with mobile Internet access.
