paragraph coherance exercise

"* Belief that not enough is being done to provide safe social networking sites is dominant right now. There are many reports of kidnappings, assaults, and stalkers linked directly to these sites. There is also concern the majority of people doesn’t know or understand how to use the privacy settings. @[Another point being] that there are ways around these settings that more and more people are figuring out. I personally believe the middle ground should be dominant. A reason for this being the 'bad' effects of facebook and myspace have not affected me personally. @[Also] I understand the privacy settings and believe they work. @[I also think] the person has a lot to do with the situation and people responsible for social networking sites are not necessarily responsible for the safety of its users. The user decides how much information to reveal on these sites. I think it's important for a person to take responsibility for themselves in these kinds of situations."

This exercise was beneficial I thought, it's something new that i've never tried before. I see this exercise helping more and more with my future papers.
