Speaking

3. Think of an answer to the question “Do you use social networking sites?” Use ideas from the text.

For example, here's what people in London said:

“I actually only use Facebook but not very often. My friend, she's literally addicted. I mean, there's nothing to do on Facebook other than like… you're literally looking at people's pictures and their comments and stuff but people are on it for hours. I don't get it sometimes”.

“Yes, I do! Facebook! Mainly to stay in contact with people who I know but I don't see very often”.

“I use Facebook and Myspace sometimes. But that's about it. Like, I don't use Twitter 'cos I don't really understand it all the time. It's quite bad!”
