Assignment 4B


Why has social networking become so important to our everyday lives?
à Social interaction, daily life, college, networking, relationships, importance, connection
à In today’s world, social networking is everything. Being able to stay connected whether near or far is extremely important and valuable in today’s world. However the question is more importantly, why has social networking become all the rage? And another question widely questioned by researchers, is why is it so addictive? Throughout my research I found many articles pondering the same question. Whether questioning addictiveness or the shaping role of social networking, it is on everyone’s mind. From here I want to investigate social networking as a whole, and its importance, and also what makes it so addictive for all ages.

  1. This is a pretty good research question, Sarah! I'm glad that you're already finding more questions spurned by your research! This is exactly what you want to have happen.

    So, I would proceed, thinking about why social networking is important and for whom. Do groups of people use it differently? Are there marketing influences? Are there cultural ideas about technology or networking or even social interaction that play roles?
