Social networks - as a series
Have you ever wondered what is so tempting us daily to join social networks, peek at them even with a lot of important work, keep track of your friends, classmates, acquaintances and even strangers, but something we somehow interesting people? This is probably treat for the same reason that people watching serials.
"In a sense, the soap opera - the first social network," - said in an interview Stacey Matthias, a global market research agency Insight Research Group Managing Director.
And in fact, Facebook is a kind of watching the series. Often it reflects the whole human drama of life and survival.
The Facebook we learn, as it seems the former classmates of the second half and that in general they have them. Here we have the opportunity to see once or twice to see acquaintances wedding photos and evaluate the bride dress. Social networks reveals how it seems former collaborators children, spouses and pets as well, what are their names. Here you can see even in the kind of new found love for the ex and compare it with him, of course, that new love disadvantage. There is also the knowledge of what country is now living his childhood friends, what they are doing, what the house has and what vehicles are driven - in addition to social networks, this information is almost inaccessible.
Moreover, all this information is updated constantly, and we continuously Lend to social networks that only those updates unintentionally to miss. Even more - we make ourselves as much information about yourself and see what and how to evaluate it.
Social networks of other lives, or at least part of them - we are visible as the palm. Tell me, what is it - not series? Indeed, it is even better than the TV series, as observed in the real, not fictitious people's lives ... and even deaths. Lithuania does not happen (hopefully), but the world press are there messages, as someone his suicide managed to capture the moment and put on Facebook.
Another question is why people are so interested in other people's existence and way of life? Why do we follow with interest your acquaintances on social networks? Why is it so interesting is written about celebrities - it is the greatest runs of the publications that write about famous people, mainly clicks portals also receive messages about the stars? Why do most of us like to watch television serials, even knowing that their heroes - to invent and dream about their favorite books more?
I guess that psychologists response to seek through anthropology and the more or less the conclusion that the people of each other have come to observe even prehistoric times to the timely would see danger and keep up on the defenseless, or to understand, or another family member is eligible to couples . Or maybe all - much more difficult?
Thanks hope you like it.
