They let any kind of user share any kind of information and they allow to widen knowledge, through a virtual personified identity

They ease relations and eliminate barriers through activities, interests and hobbies sharing

They’re useful for the academic and working field if they’re correctly used

They allow people and entities to show themselves and their capacities, virtues, possibilities…

They ease self-learning, personal development and putting into practice the knowledge

They promote the efficiency, the management, the participation, teamwork, joint projects…

A social network, in computing, is a set of people interconnected, in this case electronically and usually through the Internet, who can communicate between them and show, share and storage information; data, statements, contacts, images, videos, music, games, locations… through a webpage or application.

This way they manage their virtual social life and their leisure or professional time.

...or vertical social networks with integration of horizontal social networks

They're vertical social networks

Users act freely at the same level, interrelating in general, without further purposes

Some people pretend to be someone they aren’t and they can harm someone, by getting their information

They may become an addiction

There are many crimes committed through the social networks (cyberbullying, child pornography, pedophilia, kidnap…)

The privacy is usually at risk and people don’t realise about the danger of showing everybody their lives

In some countries being user of some social networks is a threat to national security
