For my social media project, I have chosen to analyze the Twitter page of
Lupe Fiasco. I follow Lupe on twitter
and I feel that he puts a lot of things up that are deeper than the average
tweet. Lupe Fiasco posts pictures, retweets fans, and often quotes others or
his own personal thoughts. He also uses the page to advertise. Lupe seems to refrain from profanity, but is
not afraid to show emotion in a tweet. Lupe comes across as very mature, philosophical,
wise, and in some cases light-hearted from the content of his tweets. Lots of
his stuff evokes deep thought. Lupe
enjoys off beat subjects and bringing them to light. Lupe has a broad fan base
and uses his Twitter to educate, advertise, and entertain those following him.

The Internet Tattoo
My life went public five
years ago. Five years ago I became a
facebook member and since then my life has been recorded online. I feel I
represent myself well. Although I keep
my account private, I still try torepresent myself in a positive image. The
pictures on my page are rarely updated and include appropriate pictures of
myself attending school events, athletic activities, and vacations. I do not
try to hide my true personality on facebbok or create a superficial look. I
want people to see me when browsing my page. I feel I provide an accurate
reflection. I don't feel I'm responsible to add to or update my profile.
I do feel the need to maintain a good image though. I edit my profile
minimally. I do not think I have set a
status in a year. I filter pictures and
other posts on my page because I do not want some things engrained in my
internet tattoo forever. I am currently
aiming to become a car designer. I feel
designers in general are a little out there, so I feel that my page is mild in
comparison to others. I would feel
comfortable with an interviewer browsing my page.
