Favorite Blog

The blog I found most interesting was called TV anchor’s Facebook page adds 35,000 fans in single day. I found it intriguing because it portrays the current reality we are living in. Social networking is a revolutionary innovation that has enable millions of people across the world to communicate and to connect with one another. This blog explains how in a single day, a Facebook page attracted 35,000 people. Facebook is the world’s biggest and fastest social network.
The Facebook page is dedicated to a local TV anchor in Seattle who posted that she had a brain tumor. People’s support as she said, was ‘overwhelming’. Within 2 days only, her page had up to 42,000 fans. People around the globe can just click on a few links and find sites and pages that they support or that they disagree with. From there, they can comment on issues, start debates, movements ect. Political and social matters are also subject to social networking evaluations. Thus, people can have an opinion and a say even if they aren’t a journalist or if they’re not someone in power. Social networking connects people globally and allows them to come together for a common goal or purpose.
