Module 7 - Angel Discussion Board Assignment
Due Monday, April 25
"Instead I heard it through the grapevine
Oh-h, not much longer you be mine
Oh, I heard it, yes, I heard it [heard it through the grapevine]
Oh, just about, just about, just about, to lose my mind"
- Barrett Strong and Norman Whitfield (1966)
One of the growing uses of the Internet is "social networking." This includes destinations such as MySpace and Facebook, and technology like IM and text messaging. In one tragic case last year, a teen committed suicide because of a spoofed MySpace profile. The Module 3 reading "24/7: Teens get the Message" looks at the broader use of the Internet by teens.
So do you use the Internet for social networking? If so, how do you use it? What advantages does it offer over face to face of POT ("plain old telephone") networking?
