The 5 Characteristics of Social Networks
Hi Sam!!!
What’s up
Lisa?
User Based
• Users submit and organize information
• Direction of content can be determined by any user – no one person dictates the current topic
• Freeform/unstructured
Interactive
• Not just a collection of chat rooms and forums
• Users can play games, take fun quizzes, share photos and ideas with friends
• A way to connect and have fun with friends
Community Driven Members hold common
beliefs or interests Can make new friends with
people who say they share your interests or beliefs USE CAUTION
Can reconnect with old friends
Relationships Social networks are driven
by the number of relationships between its members
With no control on your settings, information will be dispersed to your friends, their friends, and so on…
Emotional Content In the past, web
content was primarily information
Social networks allow people to communicate needs within a community of friends and receive immediate responses
References
The 5 core characteristics of social networks were described in a 2007 research study by researchers at Rice University, the University of Maryland, and Max Planck Institute for Software Systems .

In General…
Check the PRIVACY Settings
For any and all social network sites & electronic devices----it’s your responsibility!
• Anyone can use whatever picture they want on the Internet, so beware! A nice picture can hide a not-so-nice person!
• It’s best not to use your full name on any social networking site – especially until you’re 18.
• If you are too young to use a social network, don’t lie, but your true age (teen-aged) may invite cyber-predators, so be careful. Hide your age if you can!
If you feel harassed or bullied on a social network:
• Ask the operators of the network for help
•Let them know you are a minor
• Or confide in a trusted adult
When on a social network:
• Only post things you wouldn’t mind an adult seeing
• Make sure you have a trusted adult as a “friend” or as a “follower.”
•This will remind you to be on your best online behavior!
Look to the Future
• Future employers may see what you have posted
•Colleges and scholarship organizations will look at what you’ve posted---OOPS!
Set Up Your Privacy Settings
It may be the best 10 minutes you spend on the Internet!
This slide presentation will be posted on the library webpage for reviewing if you need help remembering how to set your privacy settings
