Facebook: Beneficial or Catastrophic? Why has Facebook had such a successful takeoff? Well we can answer this question by looking at several aspects of the world we live in today. I will answer this question by using parts of the barrel model. From the barrel model I will use ideas/values, social aspects, and techology. These characteristics of the barrel model are probably the easiest to utilize for this question. Lets first think about the sources from which we get our ideas and values from. Probably the the number one place we get our ideas and values from is technology, especially the internet because it is every where and we rely on computers too much. Another source is people we physically interact with. To me and I am sure most others values and ideas are something that should stay the same, especially values, but they change every day whether or not we want to admit it. Facebook is a great example of this, for instance, what someone on Facebook says they believe is probably not what they believe in reality. They realize they can become someone popular or have a new yet fake identity. Now I’m not saying everyone on facebook does this but a large portion does. The biggest thing Facebook has affected is how we socialize. With this site people from all over the world can communicate without having “long distance fees” and is a faster way to connect with friends. Facebook probably would not have taken off like it did if we had to pay extra to use it. Although being benificial to expanding our means of communication around the world it also has made us less active in interacting with other people. Friends now communicate over the internet rather than going to their house or physically hanging out with them. Expanding communication and mixing cultures can be a good thig but can also be a devastating thing. For the Native Americans this was true when the English came over, they were wiped out. Now we will focus on the effects of technology. Increase in laziness...
