Please listen to this episode of On the Media: "The Facebook Show":http://www.onthemedia.org/2012/feb/03/
As a citizen of the nation of Facebook (or "Facebookistan"), what are your rights and responsibilities? How does this podcast--and a larger discussion of social media, which includes using blogs--fit within this class?
As a facebookistan my responsibilities is to put real information up about myself like my name
photos etc. I have a right to create groups and to promote certain things. I have a right to some privacy on the website. However, listening to this podcast facebook can change whatever they want about the rules of facebook whenever they want. So this means the limits and the extremes of our rights and responsibilities vary. I guess this discussion fit in to out class because in order for the speakers to have even come up with this podcast they would have had to research. And not only research by online but possibly interviewing people that are all members of facebook. In this podcast several questions are being ask. Some of which are to broad and can't be completely answered and some are narrow which is a bit easy to answer. In all honesty though I do not know how reliable this podcast is even thought they're throwing facts back and forth. How trust worthy are the speakers who are giving us this information or even about the people they are talking with. I'm still left with a bit of questions after listening to this podcast.
