there are many sites which help us to correlate or to get in touch with

world people are now having multiple profiles, they are articulating
about themselves openly to others either it’s about their personal
relationships, their own personality traits. People are not only
infatuated they have made these profiles as a part of daily life. This
rapid adoption has made a measure concern for us raising some
questions like:
