Type of social networks:
There are two types of social networks that are best known
for the way they are organized and the openness they offer
to their audience.
Horizontal social networks
Horizontal social networks are sites that are more open to
everyone and do not have a defined theme. Participation in
these virtual spaces is free and their only purpose is to
share with others.
As an example of these social platforms, we have Facebook
that does not have a central theme and the audience is
totally varied, there is also Orkut in Brazil, Identi.ca, Twitter
an Tuenti in Spain.

2) Importance of social networks
Social networks are becoming very important in today’s society, reflecting the need of the
human being for expression and recognition, well Aristotle said, “Man is a sociable being by
nature”, because to meet their physical and spiritual needs you need to live in society, since
being a rational and individual creature, is not self sufficient and requires the help and
protection of other of its kind, for that reason it forms communities”. But what is a social
network? We could define it as a form of social interaction, where there is a dynamic
exchange between people, groups and institutions that share tastes or preferences among
themselves, achieving a sense of belonging and developing a fabric that acts for the welfare
of the entire community.

4) Conclusion
Social networks are one of the most striking phenomena of a new
communication philosophy, where millions of people intervene daily. The
increase in the number of users in the most recent years is also striking. If we
ask ourselves what this intense interactive online transfer is, the answer can
be simple. Man has an innate need to communicate with others, the computer
can be a perfect tool to unite people from different parts of the world and,
however, with common interests. Social networks also located in mobile
telephony, complement it, as happens with email and other traditional
communication systems, consequently, social networks have become digital
platforms for interpersonal interaction. There are those who suggest that they
are part of individualism of the 21st century, but the truth is that they can serve
to nurture the personal life of users, not only by expanding professional skills
but also with a great capacity to establish numerous contacts for other
purposes.
