In 2005 a website called Facebook is a social networking that everyone uses at the Escuela Internacional Sampedrana. Students usually, right after school, comes home to check if they have gotten any picture comments, friend requests, or any other notifications. It’s a great way to keep in contact with old and new friends and even family.
Student post up pictures of their friends and family and show what they have done. Unlimited photos and albums can be uploaded. This is a way for everyone to see what the new style is, and hang out places, and keep up to date with their friends. Status also states what your friend is doing or feeling. Poke is also a way to interact with your friends, doesn’t really do much it’s just like a little game to annoy you. The Wall on Facebook is another way to interact with your friends. You are able to comment on their wall and be able to write to each other back and forth, but everyone is able to read what you write. This has caused drama to many students. There is an inbox located on the top of the page where you are able to send messages and write to your friends in private. Another way to talk with your friends is the “chat” box located at the bottom, which was recently released. This is a private way to talk also. It’s simple; it seems like if it was MSN Messenger. Another great feature of Facebook is that it shows when peoples birthday comes up for a little reminder. Everyone forgets at least one of their close friends’ birthday.
There has always been a problem about gossiping on this website, talking about people, things that are not even true. This really upsets people and no one can really stop this. There are these groups where you can enter in to be a part of. Well there was a case at E.I.S this year that some students have posted up some fake information of other students that really upset them. It’s really immature to even post up things that you know that someone would not like. I am pretty sure that there have been several other cases in different countries or states that has been into gossip and drama over facebook.

Fernando Ramos- I think facebook should be banned from the internet due to all the drama caused by such website. Many students have been bullied online.
