Our Lives, Our Facebooks

author: Fred Stutzman, University of North Carolina at Charlotte

Description

Students at a large number of American colleges and universities have come to rely on The Facebook (http://facebook.com/) as a vital supplement to their social lives. A social connector website, Facebook serves the information needs of students who have perpetually in-flux social networks. As a result, frequency and penetration of student use is remarkable. In this presentation, a longitudinal analysis of Facebook use by freshmen at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will be presented. Use patterns will be analyzed, with a special concentration on factors that contributed to the product's success.
