The progress in information technology makes social networks much more compact between people from all over the world. In the age of Internet, many new social interaction ways become more and more prevalent such as instant messaging, Web conference. These tools help people share their ideas and cooperate. However, in the meantime, there exist some risks because the person you are chatting with may just be a fake one. In this situation, the face recognition techniques could help identify the truth and make the social networks safe. In this paper, research is conducted on application of face recognition techniques into daily social networks. By combining robust face recognition techniques into our social networks, we can better discriminate risks on the Internet and make full use of social networks on academics, business or other issues. At first, the basic concept of social networks is introduced. Afterwards, the state of the art in the field of face recognition is described. Finally, some suggested ways are given on how to apply face recognition techniques into our social networks.
