Week 11 - Social Networking

Part 1. Describe your history with and use of social networking:

When I first started out with the social media, it was, I'll admit, hard to adapt, but I did realize it was the beginning for my generation to be the savvy tech generation. The very first type of social media was creating my email accounts (via: AOL, Yahoo, etc). Eventually it lead to using AOL Instant Messenger, social media sites (i.e. Friendster, Hi5, Myspace, Facebook, music forums Youtube, etc). As of now, I do not use AOL anymore, I now use more of Yahoo, Hotmail, Facebook, Friendster, Youtube, and music forums. Most of the social media sites I use and go on to are similar in usernames, email accounts and its password as well.

Part 2. Select a NEW-TO-YOU social networking service and join it:

I chose Flickr for its online community for photography and sharing photos worldwide.
