Today’s information and telecommunication technology makes it possible to communicate data and other information exchange regardless of location, distance and time space. The most popular e-tool used for communication is social networking. Social networks have experienced an evolutionary process - in the beginning there was like-minded grouping, news exchange by means of e-mail.
