I am not that surprised on how many people have social media accounts like on Facebook or Twitter but the fact it grew so fast is really surprising. I think it does help people to get to know others when they have accounts on these websites but it is kind of keeping people from getting out and enjoying the outside and real contact with others. I do like how Mexico is using Twitter and Facebook to crack down on crime.
In all I think social media week is a good thing to do. It teaches students about how to become more connected with their friends and organizations of interest. I might not like Twitter that much yet but I glad I know how to use it and maybe will like it in the future.
