Although I don't agree with social networking online, on a personal level, I can see that there is a place for it. Certainly for ease of communication of people in different countries or towns, it is technically free to use and can be private if one wishes it.
It is increasing in its popularity in the commercial world with most online websites advising you to "like them" on Facebook to receive discounts etc.
I personally don't like it as I believe it can cause young and innocent (vulnerable) people to expose themselves in some way.
In regards to twitter, this too has its place. I like it for say, notifying you of train disruptions, road blocks, sales and so on. I can see for some it may be contagious and a form of entertainment but it also is a time waster and could distract one from leading a real life. ( I did find it fun though !)
