For my research top I want to do an analysis on dating websites/dating applications(Tinder) and the effects that these new social media websites have on society and the way people interact with each other.
Some potential questions that I will be trying to answer fall along the lines of:
Is it good that more people are connecting because of new media and the term "small world" existing because of these new media technologies?
Connecting people based on preferences/interests maintain longer and more intimate relationships?
Does this ruin face-to-face social interactions between people when they meet? Does it change the way people interact in general over time?
How these dating apps and websites are affecting modern day dating/relationships and mostly some positive and negative effects it may have on people.
It sounds like an interesting topic. Would you prefer face-to-face meet up or meeting up online? and why?
ReplyDeleteHey....I like your concept. It's really interesting that you said the term "small world" and referred to the new media technologies cause at the end of the day the new media could compact the entire population in one single entity.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the input, I actually think that the whole internet dating is good in that it does bring people together but it takes away from people's actual social skills in that they can be someone else behind a screen
