First of all site like Facebook and Twitter sharing detail of our lives with one another. Post can range from simple update, something as simple as a picture of your friend doing embarrassing thing may not harmless you but to a future when your friend become employee this does not very good. Another issue is cyber bullying. Cyber bullying has become a major issue for teenager in more recent years, as it allows it is victim’s “friend” to post things in front of their peers. Cyber bullying can also take other forms such as email, text, chat room and mobile phone. Those who cyber bullying someone also have the ability to pose as someone else or even create false identity to terrorize their victim.

            Narcissism affect younger and older people, at this era we often seen teenager play with their smartphone. What are they doing? Of course, they are browsing through internet and access social media site like instagram, twitter, path and facebook. It is look like they all swallow up by technology in this era. The moment Facebook release, there is bunch of teenager firstly step on it. Social media was getting a lot popular on recent year. Let’s talk about 2 most favorite social media Facebook and twitter. First Facebook, what are you know about facebook? How often you open your Facebook? Facebook is one bigger social media. You can meet new people through Facebook, sending a message, play video games or advertising. There are two unique features “pokes” and “likes”. More often you upload photos, the more like you will get and that showing you are narcissist. Usually middle-aged people use Facebook as a way of gaining approval of their image from their peers and those who are already in their social circles. There some research talk that Facebook has more adult user, I think it is true the young user has been move to twitter. Next is Twitter, another social media that popular with “tweet”. Follow and unfollow become their based on this site. Following and follower, that was make it different with another social media. The many you have follower, the narcissist you are. Through Twitter they are trying to broaden their social circles and broadcast their views about a wide range of topics and issues. Usually younger counterparts take to Twitter to satisfy their vanity and opinion.

            Based on what I explained above Narsissism is not that bad, as user whose use the site we know what bad and good for ourselves. We are the one use social media for our privacy and we should be more awareness about that. In this era people can connect with other people easily. Technology that always up to date every year, but even it has bad effect there still has good effect for other people.
