Spreadability and Teenagers

With the advancement of technology, came social media. In the past ten years social media has become something a lot of people can not live with out, especially the younger generations. Spreadability has become quicker than every with the ease of sharing things and getting quick information through social media. It also makes it possible for readers to acess specific information that caters to their point if view specifically. [1]Facebook is known for being a way of keeping up with friends and communicating, however in 2016 teenagers are using this less and less.[2] Twitter is another way that information can spread like wildfire. Most of the time teenagers spread personal thoughts through "subcultural references and other pop cultural references." [3] Since the use of twitter has increased 16% in 2016, this is a key component to spreadability. With the easy and quick access that teenagers experience with Twitter, it is easy for them to get quick information from someone's post.[4]The most common form of Spreadability we saw in 2016 was with Pokémon Go. Teenagers and even some adults everywhere were obsessed with catching them all. Reddit, a social news website, showed a large amount of posts, memes, and screenshots that has to do with Pokémon Go. [5]

The negative side of Spreadability being quicker than ever is that it can contribute to cyber bullying. A lot of the cases in where a teenager is being cyber bullied, there has been evidence of negative representation of the teenager spread through social media. There have also been cases where private messages and photos have been shared quickly to hundreds of people over the control of the person. The biggest contributor to this is the anonymity that protects the person who started bullying. [6] Jaquelinramos16 (talk) 15:34, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

For the article I plan on adding a part about spreadability with teenagers in 2016. Teenagers have the most access and exposure to media which means they are the most affected by Spreadabilty.
