A Functional Approach to Social Networking Sites
This chapter covers the primary ways in which people use SNSs. As someone who uses a SNS the chapter didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know. The concepts of impression management, information seeking, and metacommunication are all things I think anyone who uses a SNS do and understand. I was interested to know that the data for most of the conjectures in this chapter are just now being compiled, not that I think they will contradict the ideas presented but it is interesting to see just how long it takes to gather data.
