Since the invention of the telephone in 1870 the way we communicate with each other is constantly changing. More and more devices are being developed allowing people to socially interact with each other all around the world. The most common of communicating now a days is through social networking sites, these play a crucial part in many peoples everyday lives.
At Weatherhead High School, E-learning has been established to help monitor the use of social networking by its pupils for their safety. At Weatherhead its E-learning coordinator Jules Arnold who undergoes procedures in order to keep students out of danger.
Mobile phones are increasingly being used for social networking. Many phones have apps built in to help people connect on the go. This is most used by teenagers and young people, as they’re the majority age group that use social networking sites.
Fans can keep up to date with bands and singers by looking at their page on social networking sites. Artists such as Justin Bieber and Esmee denters have used sites such as YouTube to escalate to fame. Local Wirral band Daywalker are also trying to do this to boost their career.
A major example of things being posted is the London Riots in August 2011.
Blackberry messenger was used to post riot meetings, to cause further violence and destruction to cities nationwide. Many people were arrested for helping organise the riots. We spoke to the chief of Merseyside Police who had to help combat the riots in Toxteth and other parts of Liverpool.
