Excited for this semester with @2450fall2015!

@2450fall2014 Generally social network "info intermediaries" = #goodidea b/c it means data transparency, but we might not like what we find.

@2450fall2014 There are social norms w/ FB privacy settings: limiting to "only friends" is OK; not having a wall/any tagged pics is overkill

@2450fall2014: theatlantic.com/magazine/archi… Interesting tie into how social networks are the info gatekeepers of our generation

Check out our video about how tech has changed the job hunt: youtu.be/juD67ZJWjdM @2450fall2014

.@2450fall2014 #FreeRiders on Youtube get to be entertained by cute cat videos even if they don't contribute/comment & add to community

Maybe laptops in class is useful - yes, some people go on FB but it's fun to look & psycho-analyze them @2450fall2014 #badidea #imcreepy

.@2450fall2014 While most Wiki contributors are thee-regarding, there are also me-regarding trolls like WillyOnWheels

Interesting how political blog arguments are more defensive than offensive, yet not much convo b/w opposing parties @2450fall2014

TBH, friend's FB selfies w/ the "I voted" sticker is probs what got 1st-time voters to vote in the 2012 election @2450fall2014 #peerpressure

#networkedindividualism makes me wonder how close people really are & if 'closeness' is now just a function of tech @2450fall2014 #skeptic

FB 'close friends' are self-fulfilling prophecy; you stay close b/c you keep getting notifs when they do anything #strongties @2450fall2014

#thatawkwardmoment when deactivating FB & it says "so-and-so will miss you!" but you don't really know them/care #weakties @2450fall2014

@2450fall2014 The effects of assimilation may give Barney Stinson's Cheerleader effect of #attractiveness some merit: how-i-met-your-mother.wikia.com/wiki/The_Cheer…

K+C's claims explain why I've gotten better grades on group projects when we meet in person v. when we divide & conquer @2450fall2014

Working for a virtual mag, ppl frequently drop from G+ hangout meetings; 'faulty Internet' leaves their work to me #freerider @2450fall2014

Your Klout score measures how effective you are in reaching your intended audience on social media: klout.com/corp/score @2450fall2014

FB feedback mechanisms are manipulated to reach a larger audience ("re-like my pro pic so it shows up in ppls newsfeed plz") @2450fall2014

@2450fall2014 When tweeting, I try to be witty/pithy b.c that's what (I think) friends expect of me #behaviorconfirmation #imaginedaudience
