Buying media isn't the only thing we can do online these days. It used to be that in order to interact socially with others, we had to leave the house and meet up with other people in a bar or another public place. But since the advent of social networking, we can interact with other people right through our home computers. If you're new to social networking, let us introduce you to some popular sites and show you some of the ways you can interact with others using them.

Social networking sites are designed to facilitate communication and interaction between users. Therefore your social networking experience will usually start with a profile. Your profile might include a photo, a list of your interests, which city you live in, or your line of work. You then post it on the website for others to find, and it will help them decide if they want to be friends with you. If they do, you can send requests to one another to access more of each others content, such as photos, opinions, status updates, and game results.

Most people use social networking sites to interact virtually with people they already know in real life, such as their friends and family. It also allows them to connect with people they lost touch with, such as old high school buddies or former co-workers who moved away. However social networking also gives you the option of meeting new people online. You can look for friends, family, or even dates on social networking sites without ever leaving home or actually speaking to another person.

Before you start social networking, you should arm yourself with a few basic rules of safety. Firstly, since social networking sites do not check up on the information users enter about themselves, be aware that it could be a lie. Your new friends might actually be predators, which is why you should never give out your address or phone number, and if you decide to meet in person, it should always be in a public place.

If you'd like to get started with social networking, Facebook is a great place to start. It allows you to create a custom profile, play games, post photos, see what your friends are doing, and even support causes and events or find out about new media you can download. Other popular social networking sites include MySpace, Hi5, Twitter, and Friendster.
