Not in the right order of weeks obviously, my first attempt I wasn't happy with so I deleted and re-did. Enjoy!
Social networking is an aspect discussed in the lecture material, and displayed on the course blogspot site. It's an activity which seems to have really spanned the past decade or so, and is only growing in popularity, with the likes of myspace being rivaled and surrounded by facebook, twitter, hello world, bebo and so forth.
If you have to have a little part of the web which is there to express your creativity and individuality, perhaps it could be done in a more subtle way. Listing your every like or dislike, sexual preferences, potentially indictable offences and what not on the internet is likely to cause problems for you eventually.
As mentioned on the course blogspot, imagine a potential boss or business client staggering upon some particularly low-brow, drunken photos of yourself from the weekend. It boggles the mind!
This online social networking has become so extensive and frequent, it is a modern journalistic tool for news. Politicians all have twitter pages! They're completely fake of course though, and would only post pre-meditated and approved twitter comments etc.
Who knows how far this online phenomena could go? Perhaps one day everyone will remain in their homes and all communication will be done via facebook? Let's hope not...
