3.4.12 - Assignments

1. Social Networking Service


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_networking_service

Well as all articles in Wikipedia it is not so funny to read and makes me unbelievable tired...
To summarize the article which contains 14 chapters I can divide it in 3 main chapters.

1. The history of social networks and its development regarding emerging trends
2. The issues that come up with social networks like e.g. privacy
3. Applications, coming from the government, enterprises or schools

2. Try another Network


I hope its ok but i'd rather prefer not to become a member of another social network... I am already member in Facebook, StudiVZ (yes my account is still existing^^ but unused) and Xing (unused as well)
and I really don't want to try Google+  or any other of the existing social networks. I had accounts in some other social networks as well but I deleted all of them (e.g. Lokalisten, SchuelerVZ, mySpace).


3. Small World Experiment 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_world_experiment

Well what can I say, the Small World Experiment by Stanley Milgram is social networking in the 1960s.
That means the idea of social networking was developed long before it was as easy as today with the use of the internet.

4. Web 2.0 vs Social Media


This is the Google trends graph about the popularity change of "Web 2.0":




And this is the graph of "Social Media":

As you can see, the graph of "Web 2.0" had its peak in 2007 and is decreasing constantly since then.
Whereas the graph of "Social Media" has been constantly rising since 2008.
