New Social Media Not So New
Loading...
Uploaded by StanfordUniversity on Nov 1, 2011

social media today is a lot more different than the ancient times..

It is interesting to know that in ancient times, people tried to communicate through many channels of communication, as we do today.

social networks have been around for as long as life was here, digital social networks on the other hand are new... letters are old hat lol

I think the whole point of "new social media" is the media itself not the social part.

LOL!
Billets weren't like facebook or social media at all! They were just the only way to communicate between rich people. without going out of home. So what about postcard to brag about where you have been. it's the same as facebook right! What a study..

Nice sales pitch for woman. Try offering something substantial. Weird how she accelerated straight to revolutions as the prime adopter of social media. Why not offer something constructive to society. All the revolutions she mentioned resulted in anti-woman regimes taking over.
