@katelyncomodu I have heard of “Change” before but was not sure as to all it was about. It does seem very interesting and influential. I will certainly look into it more now #comodu
@katelyncomodu I too created my first social media account in the year 2009, it was Facebook. Then twitter followed for me and I guess I was hooked haha. It’s crazy how much we all use social media now #comodu
Thinking upon how this course on social media has altered my perspective is truly remarkable. I definitely see how we interact with others online in a totally different manner now #comodu
@EllenW_COMM395 I think there were always be a forum and place for “live tweeting”. People love to hear the thoughts and opinions of others on various occurrences in real time. Live tweeting certainly permits this #comodu
@EllenW_COMM395 Yes I certainly agree with this. Twitter can be very useful for breaking news but the character count limit definitely does make it a challenge to be professional and thorough #comodu
@EllenW_COMM395 I think social media does provide the forum for adults to complain and banter in ways that children do. Perhaps we never really grow up though and social media is exposing people’s immaturities #comodu
@davidstainback1 I definitely think it matched up with how I use social media. I use it for entertainment and that is what our country uses it for according to the map. I definitely agreed with the map’s assessment #comodu
@HoveyHannah Yes I have noticed these sponsored polls as well. It seems as though they are becoming more prevalent too. It’s very weird how social media sites creep into our lives in this way #comodu
@scoch006 Yeah I think that was the most significant thing I took from it as well. Seeing how small countries can use social media to make big impacts on the world #comodu
@scoch006 Social media has certainly been very beneficial to promoting women’s rights and awareness. With so many negatives surrounding social media today, it’s nice to see it do some good #comodu
@HoveyHannah Yes I found this somewhat shocking too. I thought the US would fall under relationships to be honest. Would be interesting to see the criteria this company used when developing this map #comodu
After reading all of our posts from this past week, it really has me wondering if I could ever give up social media. It has become so ingrained into my daily routine that I honestly do not think I could. And that’s a shame #comodu
After looking at the results from a demographic of social media usage in America, it became apparent that Facebook was most popular among adults and Instagram and snap chat were most common among 18-24yo. I could not agree more #comodu
Observing the WAVE map gave me a new perspective on how to interpret how different countries utilize social media. Of course not all countries have equal populations, so the percentages must be interpreted accordingly #comodu
As we scroll through our social media newsfeeds it is important to not become jealous when we see others living “better” than us because it is extremely detrimental to our mental health. This is much easier said than done #comodu
This week’s discussion is really making me question whether or not I have done a good job of establishing trust with my respective followers. Our online presence is determined by the quality of our relationships with our followers #comodu
This article highlights the ways and steps that we can take to grow our own brands by establishing trust with our social media followers. Trust is the most important factor in any relationship. And this article gives great tips on trust! #comodu https://t.co/HlANLp2KiQ
The following twitter accounts will definitely help your overall perception and understanding of social media: 1). Social Media Week 2). +Social Good 3). Ignite Social Media 4). SmartBrief on SocMed 5). Social News Desk 6). SocialMedia .org #Activity6#comodu
Many people and activist groups have led the charge of trying to get congress to do a better job of keeping these big social media companies in check. I certainly believe the fight for a safer social media world starts with policy. #comodu
After really examining the key points and perspectives that Silverman outlines in his Terms of Service, it truly makes me think we need drastic social media reform when it comes to privacy. It seems that these social media platforms now have unlimited access to our info #comodu
