Using Social Media
I use social media every day. My use of social media has led me to
different apps and has allowed me to connect with friends, family and express
myself. I feel many people are the same way with social media. For example
millions of people use twitter as well but is there a reason for what
individual to post, share or like. So why does one post what they post is there
a reason?
Pinterest,
Twitter, and Facebook allows you to Like, Share or tweet what an individual
thinks is interesting. Whether it’s sharing a quote, posting a picture of them
drinking coffee. You get to see what that person likes and usually can relate
to. What we don’t know is why did they share, like or post what they did. Does
it relate to them in a certain way, does it mean something to them or does it say
what the person wants to say.
Something that individuals don’t think
about is when we see a picture of coffee. Like why post a cup of coffee. Is it
that important? Is the coffee good? For me usually when I post a picture, or
quote it usually reflects off of me and the current situation I’m in like for
me twitter is where I vent because I’m able to share what I’m feeling without
having someone asking me what’s wrong its where I can let everything out and be
myself.
If we fully understood and became
more aware of what were posting, would we put more time and effort and think
more we finally post what we want others to see. Is it worth putting in effort
in such an easy way?
Hi Hillary, I wanted to give you some feedback on your micro theme. I looked through it and I think you make a good point. I noticed a lot of micro themes so far have been targeting social media. Anyhow, I wanted to point out some minor bugs that I think you should fix before you submit this for a grade. The first thing I noticed was the formatting of your paper. The first paragraph is in a smaller font size than the rest of the paper and I think it might even be a different font style. You have to make sure your paper is following the MLA format style. Also, the title of your instructor should go under your name and the title of the class should go above the date. The date should look something like this: 29 September 2015, rather than 9-29-15. If you have issues with formatting, just use my micro theme as a reference. The other thing I wanted to bring to your attention is the question you chose. I was confused reading your question because it sounds like two sentences in one with no separation. Perhaps put a question mark after "...post what they post? Is there a..." You know what I mean? Also, be sure your other two paragraphs focus on possible answers to your question(s). Other than that, good job! Please feel free to contact me if you need additional help.
ReplyDeleteThe microtheme had good content, but you could use more reasons. Your paragraphs seems to be focused on one example instead of your reasoning.
