5. If the material is trust worth, you can take quotes and cite these kinds of electronic sources in your own work. 6. Wikis – Allow their users to add and revise content, and they rely on other users to back-check facts.

In addition to that, spoken language and web based communication both use hedging. For instance when people are asking a favour or trying to soften the force at which something is said they will use hedging. In web based communication hedging is used a lot, it is used frequently to avoid misinterpretation, for example if somebody was trying to give advice and was not trying to be too harsh they would add in words like “possibly” and “perhaps”. Concluding on the similarities, spoken language and wed based communication both use phatic

People nowadays can communicate with people all around the world using many different types of communications such as social networking sites, cell phones, emails, etc. Carr brings in many different scientific research as well as a couple of personal experiences to show the great change in technology and the internet. The author chose to write The Shallows from an epiphany he had realized, “It (his brain) was hungry. It was demanding to be fed by the net feed...I wanted to check email, click links, do some googling. I wanted to be connected” (Carr 16).
Most people find that looking things up on the internet is distracting because you are already on the web so why not check YouTube for a funny video, or update your status on the social network. Is the advancing of our technology worth the making us dumber as Nicholas Carr states in his piece, "Is Google Making us Stupid?" We are live in a technologically civilized society.
This website offered a lot of information from advice, inspirational stories as well as general information. There are many groups to join which allow users to communicate with one another discussing all aspects of the diet. Facebook in particular allowed me to learn using social constructivism, as discussion between users is imperative through the learning process of social activity. Informal language is used making it easy to understand and information can be shared quickly. Using Metzger’s suggested factors that influence credibility, I found this source allowed a high level of interaction socially between users although once again information provided is mostly personal opinion and not credible.
I introduce the concept of critical mass for a subclass of social contagion called complex contagion. This concept builds on earlier work to describe the nonlinear dynamics whereby most socially contagious phenomena infect very few people while a few become overwhelmingly popular. I also investigate socially contagious phenomena that arise when rational agents act under conditions of local information. Finally, I examine how my analytic work applies to a large dataset of empirical social contagion and draw implications for further research in the area.

With access to the Internet, one can always be in the company of friends, parents, loved ones and coworkers online. The click of a button immerses an individual with an overload of information about people they may or may not have a real and personal relationship with. According to some sociological research, the average human is incapable of having intimate relations with more than 150 people. Online however, this number could run into thousands and even millions of ‘followers’ or ‘friends’ at a time. People are unable to distinguish between quality and quantity, often substituting the latter with the
