The advantages and disadvantage of social software Social software is very popular in today’s world. we can see that there are many social softwares in our daily life, such as WeChat, Twitter, Facebook , Microblog and so on. There is no doubt that social softwares play an important role in our life. But everything has two sides, social software isn’t expect. The advantages of social software are that it can provides many chances to us, spreading lots of information in time, let us to communicate with our friends and family easier, and also broaden our horizon. Although there are many advantages of social software, it has many disadvantages as well. For example, we have less personal privacy, because people can learn about us from social software. Social software also cause language violence and occupy so much time. We can see that there are many rude words on the internet and many people walk on the street, looking down and playing the smart phone. It is a serious problem. When people pay too much attention in the social software, they will ignore many things, such as their study, their work and also their family. Therefore, in my opinions, social software just a tool to make us communicate with our friends easier and get information quicker. We should be the owner of social software rather than be a puppet of it.
