My favorite information system I use everyday is Facebook. Facebook is created using a computer,and a software of Facebook ,also it uses a data of comments photos, messages, chatting,personal information, friends or contacts and information about them as well.
To explore Facebook, you must create a free account on the site. Facebook's terms of use state that members must be at least 13 years old, and any member between the ages of 13 and 18 must be enrolled in school. Facebook requires new members to provide a valid e-mail address before completing registration. Once you've created an account and answered a few questions about where you work, where you went to school and where you live, Facebook will generate a profile for you.
Facebook provides several ways to find friends:
You can browse and join networks, which are organized into four categories: regions (networks that are linked to specific cities or countries), colleges, workplaces and high schools. Once you join a network, you can browse through the list of members and search for people you know. You can sort people by age, sex, relationship status, political views and other criteria.
You can let Facebook pull contacts from a Web-based e-mail account. To do this, you have to give Facebook your e-mail address and password. Facebook uses a program that searches through your e-mail contacts and compares the list against its membership database. Whenever Facebook discovers a match, it gives you the option to add that person as a friend.
You can use Facebook's search engine to look for a specific person. Type the person's name into the search field, and Facebook will display any profiles that match the name.(I got this information from how stuff works website)(http://computer.howstuffworks.com/internet/social-networking/networks/facebook.htm)

Many people use this networking systems such as the people who work in building and maintaining the systems,the people who sign up for these social networks and the people who may be advertising on these social networks.
Another information system I use is slate for doing my assignments and studying online this system as well is run on a computer and it uses the assignments, lectures, courses' outline, class schedule, mail... as a data with a simple procedure of signing up to slate and it is done directly when someone applies to Sheridan,the college sends a user name and a password to be activated students open the website and activate the user name which contains information about the address, phone number, alternate email.After activating the user name everything is saved into the system and students might open the college's website and sign in with the user name and password, the system recognizes the user name and signs students in to the account by clicking on any title students want like lectures,assignments, courses.People who use slate are instructors,coordinators,and people who works to maintain the website.
