Testing a theory- “How do social networking sites affect social interactions?”
First of all, I chose to research on this because it just sparks my interest and I have been thinking about it since my dad decided to join Facebook.

It gives you a broad variety of choices of people you may have never known.
To show other view of this is to show how I found an old friend I had a friend growing named Michelle. I lost contact with her in eighth grade. One day...
