I'd like to bring in a new topic if anyone doesn't mind! Also welcome aboard to those that just joined in the group. :D

Do you take pictures only to share with your social networks?

Honestly, I'm someone who likes to show off her "food porn", or taking pictures of super delicious food. I usually share them on both Tumblr and Facebook because I have friends and followers who are huge fans of food and would love to see (and drool) on them. I'm also an avid nature/weather picture taker. So any clouds, storms, and sunsets are my favorite things to take and share to my social world :3

^ I definitely read that as 'Do you take food pictures only to share with your social networks', after kinda reading through your answer first. xD

I kinda do. Looking through what I have up on Instagram, a lot of my pictures where just pictures that I had taken on my phone before, but I do see some that I must've taken with Instagram in mind. I've posted a few Christmas photos lately, I guess maybe to show off what my house/decorating/etc is like for the holidays.

Welcome guys! Already updated the first post!

Well, for me, I don't really take pictures in general coz I seem to be lazy to even take out a phone, and take a pic :P

But if I did take pics, I would post it on my social sites :33

Haha, I guess I must be the opposite then. xD Laziness doesn't really ensue me when I want to show off a new t-shirt or an exquisite meal that I was just served. It's funny though. Sometimes I'm all like "WAIT HOLD UP. LEMME INSTAGRAM THIS. *snap*"

In terms of selfies, I'm a little too paranoid as well. If my camera behaves well to me, I'll probably share...otherwise, I don't ;p

Eh, not really.. when I take pictures most of the time I don't even upload them, unless it's the occasional selfie of me.

SO MERRY CHRISTMAS GUYS!

So, I think a new topic is in order?

Do you always post in social sites about your everyday tribulations and going on in the lives of you? Or are you more of a reserved type that rarely posts about your day?

Woo Boxing Day for some! Ordinary day for me. :c

No, I don't want to seem like one of those negative nellys, so I don't. I'm not as Facebook savvy or Instagram savvy as I once was. When I read those statuses it brings me dude. I try to be an optimist!

I don't really post about myself on Facebook. I'm not really much of a social guy when it comes to in real life. :P

Going back to the last topic, I only took ONE picture of Christmas. That was it. It's kinda weird because I was someone who always takes pictures of all the food. But the food was just delicious I ate it instead of instagramming it. haha.

Do you always post in social sites about your everyday tribulations and going on in the lives of you? Or are you more of a reserved type that rarely posts about your day?

Back then when social networking was "hot", I posted on everyone's wall, commented on everything, and posted my status every hour or so. And that was when I had a boyfriend at the time. I was in loooooove. xD Now today, I'm just a little reserved. The new generation of social networking has turned me off greatly because every status you want to comment in, or a picture, or anything out there, there's ALWAYS some sort of a debate between a family member of yours, and one of your friends, or a stranger of any kind. It's become more stupid. So, if I ever want to post something on a social network like Facebook, I think before the consenquences. This also applies to Tumblr and Twitter somewhat but they aren't as controversial as Facebook (although Twitter houses peeps that don't have as much common sense lmao).

So, yeah. Reserved type here. I just don't post because I don't want to.

Yeah, I just can't see me posting about my everyday life. It's not that interesting, and certainly not as exciting as other people's who post on Twitter, Facebook, etc. I've seen things from "Getting my car fixed" to "Going to the store", to people posting multiple tweets about what's going on at that second. I'm not sure, I just can't seem to think of me live-tweeting my life like that.

Has anyone ever flooded their social network's timeline/dashboard because of a show/thing you're obsessed with? I don't like to liveblog my life, but when there's a show like The Walking Dead or a sporting event like Football, I tend to flood them because it reaches you out to other fans out there. It's kinda annoying to my other followers that don't follow the show, though...but it tends to be a habit xD

& Knormageddon, most people starting their accounts tend to begin that way. I remember my first tweets were "Finishing my story!", "Gonna shower brb." and "Just got out of the shower." Embarassing. xD

I think my parents on Facebook still do that. ;;

^ Haha, yup. I certainly remember starting out Facebook like that. They'd always give you the word "is" to start your statuses.

"Knormageddon is doing homework lol"
"Knormageddon is annoyed :@"
"Knormageddon is watching the hockey game! Go Penguins!"

To celebrate, here is a new topic to ponder about!

Are you conscious when posting personal stuff on the Internet aka pics, vids, statuses, etc?

I think I'm a little self-conscious about my real name. The only place where you can find my real name is Facebook, which is why I only hand it out to those I know personally. I think Facebook has become a hub where I can store super-duper personal things whereas I can share with very close friends as well as family. If I want to share something silly like a video or a picture I found on the internet, or I took from my phone, I'll post it on twitter and/or tumblr, where I don't want my irl friends or family to see xD

Yeah, because I mean like anyone can look at it. If there's pictures then I don't really care but you gotta be careful about what you post. Ugh, that's why I don't have my parents added. They would snoop like 24/7 and comment on everything!!

For me, I am very conscious of my posting and I hate it when my relatives judge me when I ever post something on my Facebook if I even post something.

A pet peeve I have when it comes to social networking is when someone posts a status about anything like "I just finished my homework!" and people like family members or anyone that doesn't know a thing about social media are starting a conversation within that status. Even debates too. I had several "debates" in several pictures of mine about the simplest things like "who was at the party?" or "was the food good" and etc. I love my facebook friends and all, but sometimes, they need to think twice when they post. That's kind of one of the reasons why I am conscious about what I post. But hey, it's the internet. lol

I actually hate it when relatives like say "That's not right!" "Delete this post right now, you're being rude" etc etc and tbh it is kind of irritating as the Internet is like the only place you can unwind from the real world and seeing the judgement in your posts really makes your gears grind...

Pictures would be a great example. xD Glad there's a "tell <person> to take down photo" command, but some peeps do take it really seriously.

Actual transcript of my facebook chat about a picture I had. Names have been replaced.

> Bob asked you to take down your picture.
*opens chat*
> "Hey Bob, what's wrong with that picture I posted?"
> "MY HAIR LOOKS HORRID. TAKE IT DOWN AT ONCE OR I'M DEFRIENDING YOU."
I'm gonna go ahead and shift to another topic, yes?

Where do you use your social media the most? On your phone, tablet, or computer?

In my cases, it is more like the following:

*me posted a funny pic*

Friend: LOL
Friend 2: **** hahaha
Relative: Excuse me but that is very inappropriate.
Me: ...

Definitely the computer. I rarely use phones (im like the only one without a phone) and I really don't have my own tablet but my sister does have a iPad but I'm not the one who uses a touchscreen keyboard :P

I honestly blow up all of my 300 MB of my mobile data plan because of social networking. So primarily, from now on, I guess my iPhone is my main source of accessing my media, especially twitter, where I can just send a quick thought or a reminder in my mind. I have a desktop though, but I'm rarely on any of my media unless tumblr has anything interesting. I'm mostly on skype and PC and photoshoppin'.

Reason for joining: I don't use twitter as much anymore, but social networks are a good way of communication, especially if you move out of state.

What are your favorite social sites? Mainly Facebook because I have a lot of my friends on their. And it's a good way for me to connect/talk to them since I moved. (I actually made 2 accounts, one as my main, and another incase I forgot the password.)
What do you use social sites for?
What I said above. Only to communicate to friends.

Where do you use your social media the most? On your phone, tablet, or computer?
Mostly on my phone. I'm barely on my computer any more really.

Welcome Venitardus! I'm going to update the FP in a short while...

Here's a new topic to delve in x3

If you could make your own social media site, what would it be? What would its contents be? How are people going to connect with each other?

WELCOME JOEY.

A social network for Pokemon fans of all over the world!

Wait we already have PC xD

My idea of a social network would be 100 times better than Facebook, twitter, and tumblr combined. I call it Twiblrbook. All status updates are 140 characters or less, with the ability to like, share, retweet, reblog, or unlike (because yes, I will provide the unlike button even though Facebook won't implement it). You can even post stuff like gifs, HQ pictures (something facebook doesn't allow ;;), long entries, just like how you would do on tumblr, and last but not least, I can implement strict privacy settings like creating default groups where friends, family, and old classmates from old schools, and you can decide if you want one person to see said post, or a group, or all your friends. I think Instagram/Snapchat does that too. xD
