The best part of a social networking site is that it lets you keep in contact with others all over the world. You can poke other Facebook users across the continent, link a YouTube video to someone around the globe, or update your WordPress blog for international readers. Unfortunately, there are times when censorship gets in the way – and it isn't an uncommon occurrance.
