Social networking is something embedded in Philippine culture. As a people, we like to “make friends” and keep in touch with family.
So the internet simply made it easy for Filipinos to do what they were already doing using long distance telephone communication or letter-writing.

Some Ethical considerations on Social Mediaจร์�ยธร์ร์มbased on the Code of the Society of Professional Journalists
Be Honest and FairYou should be honest and fair in reporting information, commenting on posts and interpreting information.
• Identify and link to sources whenever feasible. The public is entitled to as much information as possible on sources' reliability.
• Make certain that Weblog entries, quotations, headlines, photos and all other content do not misrepresent. They should not oversimplify or highlight incidents out of context.
• Never distort the content of photos without disclosing what has been changed. Image enhancement is only acceptable for technical clarity. Label montages and photo illustrations.

Be Accountable • Admit mistakes and correct them promptly.
• If posting information, make sure that it is true and factual. If it only a rumor, make it clear that it is just a rumor.
• Don’t pretend to be someone you are not (for example, claim that you can speak French, when you really do not know how).
