Boyd Reading
Clearly the point I take away from the Boyd reading is the fact that social networks like My Space and Facebook are reflections and mirrors of society in general. The Boyd reading clearly marks out the class distinction that is involved in these two social networks, and I clearly see what she is talking about at my library, as immigrant and low income kids can be seen using My Space and the private school kids clearly gravitate towards FaceBook. However, as Boyd points out, social networks are not responsible for these class issues, they merely draw them out for the entire world to see.
