What our Campaign will be about: #SocialMediaEffects

This blog will be used by two users, Cindy Tan and Kiana Courtney. Here we will be posting information on how social media can affect our minds on how we feel about the things that are posted on line. Each post will have their own mini topic about the different kind of affects there are.

Words, phrases and topics that were used the most in the english speaking in social media in 2013

Feel free to leave any comments and questions on our posts or anything you agree with or disagree on what we talk about. Let us know, we welcome everyone here! This won't be the only place you can find about what we talk about because we will be using different social medias to spread the word.

  1. Excellent start, Kiana and Cindy. The word cloud is fascinating. And good job giving long-form attribution. I'll tell you how I benefited from it: By clicking on your attribution link to the image in Wikimedia, I was able to access additional textual resources in which the image was used, and came upon information such as this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_differences_in_social_network_service_use . From there, as a curious member of your audience, I can further research concepts that are mentioned in the article. (In fact I have bookmarked some for future reading.) I'll be interested in seeing whether you return to this notion of language (words) used in social media and specifically whether gender plays any part. Good work!
