The mobile phone advertisements through messages are becoming a pain for the cell phone users.

Facebook
Pros
It’s easy! Setting up a profile is a smooth process, and the relatively uncluttered UI of the site is easy to navigate and use. It’s free and all you need is an internet connection and any device that can connect to the internet, mobile phones included. - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
Beyond boundaries:
Facebook transcends all physical boundaries, and lets your kids connect with far away friends and distant family. Your kids can easily be informed about what goes in the lives of people who are physically distant. - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
A place to share thoughts, causes and ideas. Your child can interact with kids with similar interests and ideas across the globe. They can join groups and support fan pages, and find out what other kids are interested in. - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
It’s educational! A majority of tweens and teens use social networking to discuss school work and share discussions about school assignments. - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf

Cons
Time consuming Facebook is a real time guzzler – your kid could be playing outdoors, doing homework or doing other more meaningful things - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
Kids can be mean:cyberbullying can be a real problem. There are even some documented cases of kids who committed suicide after being bullied on social networks! - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
Things aren't always what they seem There are many fake Facebook accounts, information that is misrepresented – your child could be exposed to these. - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
It’s addictive! Besides all the social features there are games on Facebook that can be very addictive. Did anyone mention Farmville? - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
Whose image is it anyway? Once your child uploads an image to Facebook, it becomes public and anyone can download and misuse that image. - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf
Its anti-social? For your kids online interaction could become a replacement for face-to-face meetings. This can hurt social development and isolate your kids. - See more at: http://puresight.com/Useful-tools/the-pros-and-cons-of-facebook.html#sthash.BsiUOkJX.dpuf

PROS:

- Staying connected with friends and family far and near.
- Connecting with folks around the world.
- Having the ability to reach multiple friends with one post.
- Seeing what friends are up to.
- Pages (not walls) offer an ability to get your products, talents, or whatever to reach billions of people around the world. Facebook has the largest membership in the world on the internet.
- Groups are great for connecting with others that share similar interests.
- Community games allow you to play with friends if you are into those type of things. (I hate them myself and getting invites can be annoying so I just block all game invites when they come.)

CONS:

- Facebook collects all your info including all web browsing whether you are logged into the site or not and they save this info into a database which they sell to advertisers and give freely to gov't authorities whenever they request it from facebook even without your knowledge. You consent by agreeing to the Terms of Service. (this is not some weird conspiracy theory...facebook has admitted to possessing the technology to track ALL your internet browsing, web searches, and purchases made over the internet. And where you are traveling whether or not you are using the location sign-in.)
- Employers and prospective employers monitor employees walls.
- Some people are stalkers and will use any personal info you may post against you.
- Having to read posts from people that use facebook as a place to dump their issues on everyone in hopes they will generate sympathy from others. This is dangerous I might add. Do NOT post anything on facebook if you don't want it used against you later. Nothing is private on this site.
- Identity thieves love to use facebook to create accounts on other sites using your name, pics, and information. Don't be surprised if you end up receiving threats from people after they have been conned by a thief using your identity.
- Spam...no explanation needed.

There's a whole lot more I could list but I could do that all night well into tomorrow, but those are just some of the top pros and cons that I could think of off top.
