When I read this reading I found many interesting. I think the author had many good point about gender and how they view when it comes to facebook. The author's introduction in the beginning pulled me into the topic. I think the author looked things about the facebook very closely. I think this was very smart for the author to do. I think this was smart, because it was easy to comparison between the genders that use facebook. I think one thing I like the author said "Facebook recently surpassed Google as the most visited site in the United States and is one of thefastest growing social platforms around the world. According to the Facebook Data Team (2010)the more than 500 million users are quite active spending, for example, about seven hundredbillion minutes a month on the site and sharing more than thirty billion pieces of content eachmonth."
In this qoute I think we can see this becoming bigger than what we thought it could be. I think this shows that Facebook has stronger connection to youth and I wonder how gender can play a big role like the artilce argues about. I thought another thing that was interesting was how much people share of personal information online with facebook. They talked about how college educated shared more relationship status then graduated student did. I wondered if we get other that we want more things not to be under public eyes. I think this was an eye opener to how people view facebook any more then social network, but soceity norm in this generation. I think we can see that facebook has open doors, but I see where there is a lot problems to facebook as well. I think this program can hurt people and take away pvirate to a point. I also think we should look at how this generation is more noisy and think they have rights to know what does on in other people's lives. I think facebook started to idea that we need to know what friends where up to and I think how we can tell is by how much information is out there. I think gender doesn't play that much of a role when using facebook. I think its about the enviroment we have grew up with. I think that should taken a counted for in this study.
