The purpose of this Blog is to follow the development of Social Networking Law in Australia.
Earlier in the year, St Kilda Football Club successfully served a Federal Court document on a minor via a social networking site.
The Police are also using Facebook to serve Intervention Orders and other documents.
Recently, the Chief Justice of the Victorian Supreme Court announced that she was considering setting up a Twitter account in response to a State Government survey regarding sentencing which found that many members of the public considered that Judges were out of touch.
In the next review of the American Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, there is consideration as to whether Cyber Addiction will be officially included.
