08/21/16 – First Blog Post + Tetrad

Hello, everyone! My name is Mahathi Mula. I’m from Cumming, GA and I graduated from South Forsyth High School. I’m a Biology major and hope to go on to Medical School after graduation to become a pediatrician with a specialization (still working on that one). I’m super excited about my first year here and I’m hoping to make it a great one! 🙂

Facebook:

Enhances: Allows for constant communication between individuals through posts, discussions, and messages. Facebook is a massive platform for trending events concerning celebrities, politics, cinema, etc. Companies can use Facebook as a platform for reaching out to current and potential consumers.

Retrieves: One can keep in touch with many people, regardless of how close or how far they are. Helps to keep loved ones close no matter how far they are.

Obsolesces: Facebook replaces the one-on-one conversations that people could potentially have had in person. Creates a barrier between people in some instances because of lack of enhancing a proper connection. Every conversation is behind a screen.

Reverses Into: Hundreds of opportunities for cyber bullying, stalking, and privacy breaching.  When users post constant updates of their daily lives, it makes the user vulnerable and exposed, creating chances for backfire.
