Social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter can be a great way to connect with friends. But there are some social networking safety tips you should always keep in mind. Manage your privacy settings. Learn about and use the privacy and security settings on your social networking sites. They help you control who sees what you post and manage your online experience in a positive way. You'll find some information about Facebook privacy settings at the bottom of this webpage. Remember: once posted, always posted. Protect your reputation on social networks. What you post online stays online. Think twice before posting pictures you wouldn't want your parents or future employers to see. Recent research found that 70% of job recruiters rejected candidates based on information they found online. Build a positive online reputation. Recent research also found that recruiters respond to a strong, positive personal brand online. So demonstrate your mastery of the environment and showcase your talents. Keep personal info personal. Be careful how much personal info you provide on social networking sites. The more information you post, the easier it may be for someone to use that information to steal your identity, access your data, or commit other crimes such as stalking. Protect your computer. Security start with protecting your computer. Install Antivirus software. Keep your operating system, web browser, and other software current. You can use the Pitt Software Update Service to automatically download the latest security updates for Windows. Know what action to take. If someone is harassing or threatening you, remove them from your friends list, block them, and report them to the site administrator. Use strong passwords. Make sure that your password is at least eight characters long and consists of some combination of letters, numbers, and special characters (for example, +, @, #, or $). Be cautious on social networking sites. Even links that look they come from friends can sometimes contain harmful software or be part of a phishing attack. If you are at all suspicious, don't click it. Contact your friend to verify the validity of the link first. Make sure you know how to access and use Facebook's privacy settings. Log in to Facebook, click the Settings menu.

What is media in your own words?

macmillandictionaryblog.com - What is the media? | Macmillan Dictionary Blog

Definition

Radio, television, newspapers, the Internet, and magazines, considered as a group: can be followed by a singular or plural verb

Origin and usage

The word media is a plural form of the Latin word ‘medium’ meaning ‘middle ground or intermediate’. Its usage as a word to describe newspapers, radio and other sources of information likely derives from the term ‘mass media‘ which was a technical term used in the advertising industry from the 1920s on.

Examples

The word media refers to any form of communication that delivers information. Common media outlets include newspapers, radio, television, magazines and internet sources like blogs or online publications. Today, ‘social media‘ is a term that many people are familiar with; this describes information distributed on social networking websites. The main goal of the media is to inform or communicate with the greatest number of people possible, all at once. The public relies on the media to learn about social and political issues, entertainment, important world events, popular culture and local and global news. In the past, the media was mostly limited to newspapers, magazines and other printed publications. Technology helped to advance the media and expand the options for people to get their daily news and information, first on the radio and then on television. Now, many millions of people rely on the internet to get their news and online media outlets have become very popular all over the world.

Quotations
