While reading the assigned reading, "Someone To Watch Over Me" I kind of was in shocked of how a 24 year old girl had so many different social networking sites to connect to different communities. It was understandable that she had the different social networking sites because she states, "Every profile is a carefully planned media campaign" (Stites 163). But on the other side it was still crazy how everyday she had a schedule to view each and every site to make sure everything was up to date. Even though online she is able to express her true personality as we go along generation now and to come people will lack the ability to communicate well with other face to face rather than just social networking site to social networking site. A lot of people search for acceptance from someone, but if someone doesn't except the person that you are then they're no meant to be there. This reading had me thinking a lot about how social networking sites take away from your personality but then again it lays it right in front of you. This girl put a lot of time and effort into her sites and really love the different communities she was apart of which to me showed dedication, loyalty, and commitment.
