More and more people are using social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace. Personally I have used Facebook to stay in touch with my friends in other states and even in other countries. Facebook is a social networking site that can be used by anyone and is free of charge. It operates on the sense of people making an update about what they’re doing or feeling. People can also upload photos and videos. Facebook users can also group their friends to keep them organized. A business can use Facebook as a great means to get customer feedback by putting up information, photos and videos about their products. The customers can then comment on the products. All of this can be accomplished by using Facebook’s advertising pages (1). Facebook has been a great tool for me personally to stay in contact with my friends that I don’t see that often and it’s really nice to be able to chat with them and read what they are up to these days. Facebook is a great tool for both people and companies.

2. Daily Italy Travel News and Deals Blog-I would love to go to Italy someday and this blog seems like a perfect one to follow because it provides news about Italy and deals on traveling in Italy. It also gives information about what new tourists attractions are coming up in Italy. It is also very organized and colorful.
