Social Media

I chose the social media theme for group presentation because I would like to learn about social networking more. Why do you need to learn more? - someone may ask. Just use it: create an account, invite friends and share with them your everyday life events and thoughts.Seems easy, and I created Facebook account more than 3 years ago, but I use it very rarely. Why? First of all, I am a person who feels uncomfortable and insecure sharing my thoughts, photos and facts of my life with 500 'friends' around the globe. The second reason is a shortage of free time.


I searched how common is my social media behavior and found interesting classification of the social media users. The research carried out by Forrester Research defines 6 different types of online social media users: Creators, Critics, Collectors, Joiners, Spectators and Inactives. According the classification table posted below, I am inactive user. The authors predict that this type of users will become rare very soon. 


Which one is your type?
