Introduction.
The
world evolves and thrives. Each individual has at least a mobile phone. Either,
the computer or the laptop, which gives an opportunity to use social networks.
As before, if the house was the computer it was intended only for work, and
cell phone for communication. Nowadays, all of our free time we spend with
these devices. For the one who oversees these processes, it may seem funny. The
question arises, what could be so interesting, so what makes you delve into
your mobile phone. And the main reason for this behavior is the social network.
In
1995, Randy Conrads invented the first social network. He invented the social
network "Classmates" and "Classmates". The main purpose of
the website to give the opportunity to find classmates and friends from one
school. Today, the site continues its work. Worldwide the site are 50 million
people. Later, in 1997-1999 - s, there are other networks as
"Diaspora", "MiGente", "BlackPlanet",
"Livejournal". And in 2004, Mark Zuckerberg founded the social
network "Facebook". In 2008, this social network was the most popular
worldwide and holds leading positions until today. In 2006, Jack Dorsey
invented the network "Twitter". And it also occupies a leading
position. A unique feature of this network is that you can write messages consisting
of only 140 characters. Since 2010 there is an opportunity to watch videos,
photos. For now, Twitter is in the top ten most viewed sites. Also social
network "Instagram" began its work in October 2010. Its peculiarity
from other networks that the user has the option shares with different pictures
of the world. In the beginning of his work Instagram was opened only for users
of the iPhone or iPad, with 2012 got the opportunity and Android users.
Social networks are sites that bring together people with the same interests,
hobbies and entertainment. By using these sites, people can share information
and find friends. In addition, the website provides an opportunity not only to
communicate but also to view the photos, videos and listen to music. Despite
the fact that we are registered on these websites independently, without
anyone's help, our every action, that is, with whom we made friends with whom
he corresponded - everything is saved. Even our IP address. All this is in the
power observers sites.
They
can view at any time and used in the required order. In short, if you get in
their eyes, they can open the archive and get the right information.
Today
social networks have become an integral part of the Internet users. Still very
popular among students, young boys and girls. It is worth considering that just
as a coin has two sides, there is negative influence of social networks.
Nowadays
social networks have become the main entertainment of the youth. Increase the
number of consumers who connect, as they say "anytime, anywhere",
live in the virtual world. In short, lost the meaning of friendship. There are
new opportunities to communicate in social networks, and accordingly, a growing
number of interested in the different innovation networks. A lot of people that
do not have in real life a single friend, have a thousand friends in the
network. Most people this from happening not even in the slightest. On the
contrary, cease to maintain relationships with friends, delving more and more
into the virtual world unfamiliar friends, where they receive generous
compliments and grows more confidence in their own irresistibility. Remains of
the opinion that they forget how to communicate in the real world.
Main body
According
to research holding "ROMIR" 93 percent of consumers visiting the
Internet because of social networking. And 42 percent after the news. Be men
sit less than the representatives of the weaker sex. The most popular network
is "In contact". Research ROMIR from 1000 users 79 percent use this
website. Another fact that should be noted, the students are also actively
using the network. Especially, adolescents. For example, "Vkontakte"
in the 11 month use million and in one minute, at the same time 2 million
users.
According
to the newspaper "Astana Akshami" in Kazakhstan 5.6 million people
use social networks daily. The most popular sites include "My world",
which is visited by 1 million 125 thousand times, "Classmates" 558
thousand times, "In contact" 252 thousand times, and
"Facebook" 410 thousand Time. It turns out, every second user in the
network makes itself the wrong information. Frankly, out of which 29% hide name
and age, 23% marital status, 22% of the way and Hobbies, 17% education and
provide false information about their work.
Speaking,
there are even those who learn and create families through the sites, or Vice
versa, destroyed their families. Social networks are the cause of every third
divorce. According to scientists, young families, conflicts arise because of
social networks that lead to divorce.
Social networks are the main thieves of time. The reliance on social networks
so much that they don't even notice how the minutes, and then hours. Social
network helpful or harmful? Want now to stop on this. It seems that the social
network is turning into one of the types of the disease. For the purpose, to
avoid being disturbed, young people in major sits at night in the networks.
Because of this day are in a lethargic state. Not getting enough sleep, broken
mode. Not enough time to eat in a timely manner, and focus on personal hygiene.
If not go to the network of one day, are in this state, as if behind the times,
from the main news of the world, even feel myself as disabled. Undoubtedly,
many people know that the cell mobile phone harmful if you abuse it. Knowing
this, very few refused to use it. On the contrary, with each passing day
increases the number of Internet consumers.
Unfortunately,
the internet is a great opportunity for attackers. In this regard, many who
visit the sites with a bad intention. To catch them or prevent their action is
no easy task. It is unclear what purpose open a page with a false name and
trying to talk to someone. Those who want to spread false information using
social network from anywhere in the world. To hide themselves by registering an
assumed name, breaking other people's passwords carry out their plans.
Different
aspects of this problem is comparatively examine teacher-psychologists since
ancient times. More precisely, the psychologist T. O. Tikhomirov and his
followers O. N. Arestev, L. N. Babanin, J. D. Babaeva, A. E. Voiskounsky and
many other scientists have studied human interaction, in particular of a
teenager with the Internet, mental activity and functional changes are still
being researched.
Thus, teacher-psychologists O. N. Cheremisina, B. L. Bardier, F. Y. Fomicheva,
A. G. Shmelev in his articles indicate that the time spent online – effect on
the psyche, behavior and thereby develop psychopathological symptoms, as a
dependency, which is accompanied by a lack of opportunities to spend leisure
time outside Internet URLs, deception, before other people.
Consider
the symptoms depending on the social networks
- Causeless to check my email all the time
- Without the need to go to the Internet
- The prosecution of folks that constantly sigil in front of the computer
- Excellence communication on the Internet
- Loss of time measurement
- Eating disorders, communication
- To deny the existence of dependence
- Aggression, apathy, the lack of mood, symptoms of fatigue.
Polish
writer Janusz Wisnewski in his novel "Loneliness in the net" says:
"the internet brings people. This is a collection of lonely people. It
seems that we are all together. But, all alone." Very many cases of young
people in order to find your soul mate, to meet with strangers, and make very
big mistakes. Each year, approximately 100 people are killed because of the
letters that leave the network. Recently, in one of the information portals,
published research about social networks. It says that "Instagram" is
a network that makes you depressed. And "Vkontakte", according to
scientists, is suicidal site. You can say that in our country, where the
suicide rate among adolescents has leading positions, this network has its own
powers.
It
is impossible to convey the harm to adolescents. The child stops to look for
information, try getting used to ready information. May be called a large
social problem – dependence on social networks, so as to perform specified in
the school's homework, the development of speech, thinking and memory is
limited to the site. Dependence on social networks is found in 95 per cent of
young people who do not part with mobile phone during study, sleep, food and
even leisure activities. As well as losing feelings such as communication, friendship,
compassion, caring. To resolve and prevent this global problem, every parent
should protect the behavior of children and to pay more attention.
Conclusion
As
practice shows, a lot of people try to portray themselves as modest, cultured
man, but in real life, unfortunately it is quite contrary. Thus, I want to note
that it is not always possible to understand a person in social life.
Dependence on social networks is a social problem. As a user of a social
network is a member of the society. Social networks are making their impact on
all the events taking place in society. This is a huge force that can radically
change the relationship of the person in the family who depends on social
networks.
