Welcome back to my blog post #10! In this blog, I will answer nine questions relate to my research project. Before answering them, I looked up a definition of the word, "zeitgeist" because all questions are about it. I attached the website's link on the blue word, zeitgeist. Thus, if you are interested in, please click it. - What is the zeitgeist topic I want to research? I want to research about social networking service such as Instagram and the effect on young people. This is because in 2000s, people were able to just enjoy new technology and post their selfies on social media. On the other hand, in 2010s, people gradually noticed the importance of digital literacy to protect their privacy particularly for young people. - What is the primary source I will use to begin my research? I will use a reliable website introducing a research result about social media and young user to begin my research. Few weeks ago, I found an article about the relationship between SNS and young people's depression rate, so I am thinking to use the article. - Who does the zeitgeist topic impact the most? My zeitgeist topic impacts the most on young SNS users particularly between 13 to 17. - When did this zeitgeist emerge? This zeitgeist emerged 2000s with Six degrees which was a social network service website. - Where does this zeitgeist impact the most? It could be anywhere in the world. This is because many countries have similar situation of social media. However, social media was originally created in the United States, so I will focus on the United States. - Why does this zeitgeist exist? This is because nowadays social media is very convenient, and many people cannot live without it. For example, they can see and post what they want. Also, some people try to get many followers and likes to be famous on the social media. - How does the zeitgeist topic make me feel (impact on your being)? This topic makes me feel sad a little bit because many people including me tend to watch their phones all time, and they think lightly of real communication. - How does the zeitgeist topic make me think (impact on your knowing)? This topic makes me think how we can make good balance between online and real communities. - How does the zeitgeist topic make me want to make change (impact on your doing)? This topic makes me want to make change the way to use social media in order to protect their privacy and built healthy relationship with other people.

You're right. Many people specially young people spend a lot of time taking their perfect selfie to get likes and followers. But, many times this can turn against because like there are good people that gives you a like or a good comment, there are also bad people that gives you bad comments and that affects the person who is receiving them.

I am excited to see where you take this project. As sabatino said I see multiple potentials for areas of specific focus and I can’t wait to see where you choose to do so.
