Why do some people post everything on facebook?
you should broaden the subject to people who are more socially inhibited and share more than others. some definitions to research to broaden the psychological research of communication are free association, projective test, humanistic psychology, psycho dynamic perspective, self-concept, unconditional positive regard, personality, hierarchy of needs, defense mechanisms, conformity, compliance, group dynamics. people feel a positive reinforcement from facebook because they can rationalize similarities of others by comparing their written thoughts with one another. Also, facebook is a false sense of identity. most people who write things over the internet would not actually say them in person so they feel 'daring' and 'spontaneous' without having the face-to-face judgment of other people. Facebook has the "like" application which gives people a sense of happiness to know that people 'like' what they are doing, where they are at, how they look, what they are wearing, and what they say. It also gives them a sense of acceptance and compliance socially, and can make them feel popular because they may be friends with the cool kid in school on facebook but not actually talk or hang out with that cool kid in real life. People get the social aspects of internet and the social aspects of real life confused very easily. You can be whoever you want on the internet, but you are more likely to be who you really are in person. Facebook is also a way for people to be nosey, check up on people more frequently then they would in person, and criticize people how they want without feeling bad, nosey, or a stalker. As far as people posting way to much information on facebook, that has to do with their social skills. Some people have secrets that they know are not acceptable to tell other people because they are not morally correct or they are embarrassed by it. Other people do not have a sense of when too much is too much. There is also another aspect of why people post too much information is that they clearly do not understand that people do in fact criticize even when you are not face to face, they are just doing it behind you back.
Why do people like Facebook so much?
I'm going to take the dissenting opinion here. I love Facebook! I joke that Mark Zuckerberg should win a Nobel Peace Prize, and I'm completely kiddingFor me, Facebook was the catalyst in my transformation from a single, 40-something near-recluse to someone with a swinging social and dating life, a closer bond with my extended family whom I barely knew (most of them live thousands of miles away, and there were some estrangement issues in the older generation), closure with some people in my past, several job and career opportunities, and a renewed sense of being connected with the world and the people in my universe.I like it that I can keep up with my cousins' and friends' children and their development. Taryn's son won first prize in a science competition? I can celebrate with him. Andy's injured in a bicycle accident? I can send my condolences. Robin's boy got his first haircut? Bring on the pics, I love them.I like it that I can forge relationships with people who were formerly mere acquaintances; before Facebook, those who would have been forgotten save for the occasional "wonder what they're doing now?" Heck, some of my best friends today are people I barely knew in real life; we "clicked" on Facebook and eventually took our friendships offline. I like that when I run into people, I recognize them and they recognize me. I have a great memory for faces, and it used to be that I'd have to explain who I was ("Remember me? We used to work together in 1992!"); usually I wouldn't even bother to say hi if it was obvious the person didn't recognize me right away. Now, it's rarely an issue, because we recognize each other from Facebook. And it's much less awkward, because we know a bit about each others' lives. Again, thanks to Facebook.I realize my love for Facebook is partly a function of my age; I have a lot of people to reconnect with, and maybe if I were 25 instead of 45 it wouldn't mean as much to me. But I love Facebook, and I'm not embarrassed to admit it.
Why do some people on Facebook feel like they have to tag themselves at almost EVERY place they go?
Calling her an "attention whore" is being kind. When a person has reached such a pathetic state, they can be defined as an "attention vampire." People such as the one you describe are just exceedingly desperate to convince themselves that they are popular, and/ or that people of the same feeble mentality will be interested in their insignificant little lives. Failbook is only a high school popularity contest for adults. Those people are still the same shallow vain egotists they were many years ago, and ol' Marky boy is laughing all the way to the bank. The fact that you are ranting about this means that she's got your attention. Love it or hate it, you're talking about her, just as those Jersey Shore animals on that horrid TV show thrive. They love any and all attention, even if it's negative. That is what people such as her want and do. The only thing you can do to end this vicious cycle is to just stop talking about it. Don't even devote any brain power to thinking about it. Such trivial nonsense is not even worth one micro-fraction of any of my brain cells, and you should treat it as such, unless you continue to visit her profile for the sake of having something to complain about. Here it is in a nutshell: she and others of her caliber feed on attention. Stop giving it to her and stop discussing it. It's the same as a television show; if it is that deplorable and annoying, TURN IT OFF AND LEAVE IT OFF. Out of sight, out of mind. Crisis averted. Logic be praised. Amen. For those who read this, please save yourselves from this mass stupidification. http://www.facebook.com/help/22456289755... http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php...
Should I make a new Facebook ?
I been on my account for 8 years I feel like that's been long enough. Lots of my family and friends have more than one account I'm just worried about my videos I have on this account because I'm going to delete it I have no way to save the videos. Should I make a new page ? Why do some people have more than one account ?
