Personal Status

Our Personal status can be what drives us to share, post and comment on social media sites to gain the greatest reward we can think to achieve through these means (attention). Whether it’s to gain a sense of belonging to something bigger than you, or to feel as if you can be greatly connected to a massive amount of users (or even feel like a leader to your group/community), we share our personal status on well known social media sites, to have our personal status known and gain the positive remarks we desire (people following your status, or liking your post/comments). At the same time, there is a chance that we can share a piece of personal info that we wouldn’t want to share. Something that was never meant for public eyes and ears.

This video is what made me consider this topic. Tell me what you think.
