@@Employee24 it's going well even though I'm back on facebook now, it's a more limited Facebook than last time, I focus more on family and relatives plus music, not in groups that discuss politics or religion.
I deleted my fbk Apps just last month, july 1, cause I feel like everyone in social media is competing but they just don't realize that. It makes me stress because most of what I've seen is a face, a food, their new clothing, new bags, their achievements, their fbk become their DIARY..... I deleted it and I have no plan to get back
Bjork, this lady reminds me of Bjork....anywaaayyyy this is some very insightful information....for us who are not aware how our environemt...every single thing we interact with shapes our behaviour and personality.
This is my point exactly. I’m currently conducting a study, I don’t have social media but I recently downloaded one social app and watch people go live… just for research purposes only to validate my theories for a school assignment. It was fairly easy to pinpoint traits, characteristics, etc easily. I don’t like social media but the study I’ve conducted has grown my curiosity of studying people.
I think I don't know people who plays or played second life and if they're use it nowadays, but the game itself it's a giant metaphor for what thing have turned into today in the way of how we communicate trough social media
Although you may be right, I think this kind of research she's doing is very flawed. You can not take one social media platform and generalize to social media in general. Looking at second Life Users only inherently biases any findings because you're looking at a very select subgroup. Any statistician will tell you that you can not choose a subgroup of a population you want to study in a biased way and expect to be able to draw conclusions about the group you drew that subgroup from. You have to draw subgroups in unbiased ways, which in this case would mean taking a random cross-section from the most popular platforms of a suitable size (which can be determined with statistical methods).
I post on youtube under my real name nowadays exactly because I don't want to be someone else online than I am in real life. When I want to be someone else for a while I have books and video games. I think this mixing reality and fiction with online pseudonyms you can hide behind is generally not a good thing because, well, it leads to the level of discourse we have today. But that's only my oppinion based on my very limited perceptions of social media. From a scientific perspective her research is very flawed. She has not taken a representative sample of the group she wants to study (social media users) but a, and she admits this herself, specialized group using an extreme form of the medium she is trying to study. I think this makes her results not transferable to social media in general. You can not take a special subgroup and then do some mental gymnastics to pretend it's really representative when it's really not. Also, I'm curious how you study what identity someone forms by just looking at their behavior from the outside. Or did they ask the players in Second Life if they themselves really formed the identities they allegedly formed? I think how social media shapes identity is one of those things which can not be studied scientifically in any meaningful way because a) the group you want to study is too large and b) the medium you're studying is too diverse and c) the medium evolves very fast, which makes the long-term validity of any result questionable.Maybe you could study it for one particular medium, like Twitter or Facebook, but even then you run into problems a) and c). I think this is a flaw of our scientific systems, that we rather say "well let's study it in the ways we can study it even though it's not really valid methodology" instead of admitting that some things are too complex to be studied scientifically if you want scientifically valid results. Which doesn't mean anecdotal evidence is worthless, but then call it what it is. Don't call it science.
You cannot dissect and generalize about social and semiotic phenomena in the same way that you do with physical and biological phenomena. Social and semiotic facts are co-constructed and historically contingent, and yet they are powerful motifs in human beings' reality. This is the type of fact social and semiotic sciences and the humanities are interested in doing research on. And yes, this is scientific in that it seeks to propose systematic descriptions and explanations for a specific domain. You're confusing science with scientism and seem to be ideologically boxed within logical positivism. I'm just curious: have you ever done any social or human research? And if so, could you share some of your work and explain how it illustrates your stance?
I've stepped away from Social Media mostly excepting UA-cam, and that is one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. Failbook was such a huge emotional energy drain that I never realized how much I felt like half a person 'til I stepped away, for example. I remember that in the 90's and 2000's, sites that had bulletin boards, chat programs like MIRC to a lesser extent or particularly forums, had intense, developing, continuous extended conversations that could last years, or perhaps a decade! These would develop on the nuance of a certain topic or topics, and generally involve a very high level of intellectual development and intense discourse or debate, regardless of the topic. Yes, there were awful trolls or those times of being too emotionally charged that a conversation would turn "toxic" and start a flame war, but really, it wasn't all that commonplace as compared to today, where nearly any site for Social Media specifically, like Failbook for example, or containing such a function like the aforementioned forums, would inevitably be entirely taken over in it's leadership by Social Justice Warriors and a neonazi leftist ideology, where even freedom of thought or expression is no longer tolerated whatsoever! We can see the most prime examples of this in the new attempt to push a 3 year jail sentence for "Offensive Content" being posted on Social Media by both Australia and New Zealand, or in the SJW's taking ownership over even Linux and many other things to ruin and defile them despite never having any real hand in being a creator or supporter of the platform in any way, on the false premise of assumed victimhood. Just look at how the SJW's killed the Boy Scouts!! This is beyond shameful, and until people wake up from becoming the shambling, zombie hordes they are now, we are effectively doomed...
WE DO NOT COMPLY !! WE LOVE FREEDOM. NOT ENSLAVEMENT !!!! if you accept tech ID, then you given % of your privileged to poor countries that corporations in that country to become more POWERFUL and bring themselves in your turf soil!!!!!!!! How would you feel that you are not chipped and you partner is. THEY ALREADY KNOW YOUR HABITS WHEN YOU ARE AROUND YOUR PARTNER.

It would be wise for her to work on her presentation skills. It is hard to focus on her message because of all of the "um"s. I understand she is likely nervous, but unfortunately that doesn't make it easier to listen to her.
From a psychological perspective, it's interesting that I was able to follow the speaker perfectly well before I decided to go down to the comments section and stumbled across this comment. A few minutes into the video after I'd read it, I caught myself being completely unable to understand Urlike so well, and her 'um's' started getting on my nerves too just because I paid my attention towards them in a directed manner. However, that experience has taught me a lesson: I think I should be more conscious from now on in forming my own opinion, plus I don't think I'll ever go through the comments before I finish watching a video again.
I appreciate her use and explanation of 'discourse' in this talk.
finally got what discourse is
Wow she is such an amazing professor that I can see how popular she is In her university and in classroom.
It's been 31 days since I deleted my Facebook account.Something I do not regret.
how's it going 1 year later?

to much lie in social media can damaging your real identity and damaging you

I am currently having an identity crisis because of social media
no, because you rely too much on it
Get off it
ion get it :(
It's true social media create anomie in identity, conflict between ME and I
The way she pronounced 'Neko' hurts my soul
co-constitutive entanglement of human agents and technology
Very nice, but I think it could have been longer... There was a lot there to digest...

Clever presentation - tough topic to present in 15 min.. well done
From a psychological perspective, it's interesting that I was able to follow the speaker perfectly well before I decided to go down to the comments section and stumbled across this comment.

Take a shot every time she says "um" and "essentially" lmao
I just post my art work and get paid 👀
