Assignment #1 Facebook

I agree with this article in lots of ways, but I few ways I agree with are the popularity of Facebook, and with the lists of friends that are sparsely connected. To go with the lists of friends there are usually family members that are connected to many of the same people in their family on Facebook, but there are those friends and/or acquaintances that we have on Facebook that we wouldn’t really talk to or see on a regular basis and you have never really been friends, but with social media you can reach them in ways you wouldn’t normally do. I think that with business a better way to go is to reach not just your friends but your friends of friends, because that can reach a whole lot more people. I agree with the popularity of Facebook piece in the article because although many teens and younger people are not using Facebook as often or at all anymore, many adults and older people have found Facebook and have started to learn how to use it. So even though not as many adolescents are on Facebook, many older people and adults have connected on Facebook making it a more adult generated site. The teens who leave Facebook are being replaced by adults and those with very few other or no other social media profiles.
