Yes, some benefits of 'social networks' are there for all to have.
But, social networks today is dependent on 'foreign' technologies: high cost equipment, high energy demand, high 'time' demand, high wastes and high obsolescence (out-of fashion), ...
Thai social networks as they are today, is more of 'socio-economic groups': space for like economic 'middle' classes to enjoy their gossips [I suspect that only 1 in 10 messages is useful -- worth the cost of time, energy and money.], ...
In sum Thai social networks are wasteful bandwidth blockers -- reducing national precious resources and available time for personal endeavour!
But don't worry, be happy ;-)
