(Computer media relationships is a valid, open form of communication)
|
This chapter covers about how researchers developed computer-mediated communication as a way to describer how people interact online. People have their own unique identity when communicating through computers. Communities emerge from individuals with differing social identities and form realistic relationships. Social media platforms create shared meanings and languages specific to each outlet. These include words like Facebook's "wall" and Pinterest's "board". The strongest relationships online are built on mutual transparency and engagement.
