Paper Abstract:
|
This pilot qualitative, primarily, research study focuses on finding not whether Facebook is a success story, for which the numbers of its usage speak for themselves but whether there are any particular benefits and concerns associated with its use. The study proves there are and provides a detailed analysis of those in an attempt to provide insight to its admins but also to those of other similar applications, like the Twitter, in an effort to make all those corrective and/or adaptive changes to further improve these tools. |
