Document Summary
A journey into a young man"s social network. I certify that there is absolutely no plagiarism in the preparation of this assignment. Networked individualism has opened the floodgates for individuals to explore all levels of social bonds. Technology allows us the access to communicate with individuals, both our close-knit companions and more distant acquaintances, on an even playing field. As a result, networks have become more diverse, and the members of an individual"s network that they would deem closest to them no longer necessarily dominate interactions. Rather, networks have become comprised of a multitude of different categories that encompass a large range of connections. Each type of connection is generally dominated by a different form of communication, and based on that type of communication, a different amount of time out of one"s total interactions. This is a result of three key social revolutions; the social network revolution, the internet revolution, and the mobile revolution.
