@AlecHosterman #410fall23 Facebook was one of the first social platforms, so it was formative to the creation of others.

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 It’s nice to have access to people who have the same interests as you. I’m in a Taylor Swift and hiking in VA group because I enjoy both.

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 I would say the biggest difference is the user base… it’s an open outlet to share opinions in a less regulated space

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 People may be more likely to engage with ads on Facebook compared to other sites because they use it more and may have more trust in the content (arguably)

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 to keep up with family/friends and find a community they resonate with

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 Their family uses it, and they probably feel pressure to keep up with them (I know I do).

@AlecHosterman For my blog, I want to appeal to book readers. To do this, I plan to use specific jargon and jokes that Bookstagrammers and Booktokkers.

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 Freedom.

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 I don’t have any examples of companies going off brand because I don’t keep up with them.

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 If a company goes off brand, they open up the possibility of losing trust from customers.

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 definitely Starbucks because of their advocacy for workers’ rights!

[Emily Robertson @ecrobertson123]

@AlecHosterman #410fall23 My favorite brand currently is Owala because of their beautifully designed and colorful water bottles. You always know if a bottle is Owala!
