SOCIAL NETWORKS

social networks & racism

We did however find an article on how a people within a social network had racists’ comments and there fore their accounts were closed. That raises another issue of freedom of speech on the Internet, and where do we draw the line? How do we catch and band those who offend? (Go to our blog site and answer this question, because though this project over these questions will continue to rise) –Olivia –Todd -Lauren

social networks/marketing and advertising

I have looked and analyzed different social networks, and i am seeing alot of marketing and advertising.  Think about each friend has about five friends who has five friends. Do you think this is the new way to marketing and advertising ("the free way")? 

Are you a multiple user?

If you use social networks like Black Planet, Asian Avenue, Migente do you also use more culturally general social networks like Friendster, Facebook, and Myspace?  If so, why do you use both social networks?  What do each of the social networks provide for you?

are we segregated on social networks?

The web is what brings us together.  I have noticed that we still have millions of people going to social netoworks that may be of the same cultural influences, such as african american, latina, and asian.  Have you noticed? Do you go to these sights, and if so what is your personal opinion on these sights? Do you agree with theses sites? Is it a hinderance or is it positive, and why?  If you have never heard of these sights try black planet or migenta out and come back and blog your comments.Thanks

Social Network Preferences

what are your feelings on social networking?  Are you more old fashioned and think social networking should still be done face to face or are you cool with meeting people online?  For those of us who will be graduating college and thrust out into the real world, trying to find a job, what are your feelings?  This question also applies to those seeking friendships, romantic relationships, or just others with similar interests and hobbies.
