"Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to recount a disastrous result from a computer virus infection.

Design/methodology/approach - The aim is to review developments on the internet, especially those of general cybernetic interest. Findings - Internet freedom is a complex issue, with practical, political and social implications. Practical implications - Maintaining virus protection is important for all computer users.

9. Spence, D.. "New kids on the blog. " British Medical Journal 340.7752 (2010): 930. Health Module, ProQuest. Web. 10 Aug. 2010. "The Internet has spawned blogs, microblogs, podcasts, and YouTube and social networking sites, and people can even simply establish their own website. This is both egalitarian and immediate: everyone is a potential journalist and publisher. Some of the result of the explosion in new media is great, but much is tedious, obsessive, phoney, irrelevant, ill considered, and insulating. Here, Spence focuses on new media and medicine. He also stresses that the new media are a good thing, because in the past history was written by the privileged few. The new media in all their guises are at least the diary of the people. They offer writing therapy to doctors and the opportunity to upload a different version of the official sanitized version of the NHS." Examples about how people socialized on internet.

T H E Journal; Apr2010, Vol. 37 Issue 4, p14-19, 5p "The article discusses the active use by school districts of social media websites, such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, to learn about and influence public opinion. It notes that the Minnetonka, Minnesota public schools have used technology funding to expand their communications range to websites, podcasts and video, and is developing a plan for strategic use of social media technology. It points out that officials learned from online conversations regarding the resignation of a school administrator that people assumed that student conduct was the reason for the resignation. They were able to post a response on the website where the comments were found to address inaccuracies. It notes that engaging in such activities requires a plan with a careful delineation of personnel involved." There's many ways to use social network on Internet.
