Cultivating Social Resources on Social Network Sites: Facebook Relationship Maintenance... - 0 views

  • hese findings highlight the importance of actively managing, grooming, and maintaining one's network, suggesting that social capital is not generated simply by the existence of connections on a SNS, but rather is developed through small but meaningful effort on the part of users as they engage in relationship maintenance behaviors such as responding to questions, congratulating or sympathizing with others, and noting the passing of a meaningful day. This work contributes to our understanding of relationship maintenance activities in social networks and suggests that the true benefit of social network sites may not just be the technical connections they make possible, but by creating an environment in which meaningful communicative exchanges, and the potential social capital benefits they embody, can flow.

      Then you have to play without end or purpose in sight.  That is the infinite game.
  • Indeed, wrestling myself away from my smartphone might be just the signal my muse needs to come around to visit me again

      One my ideas was that we could start a 10 Creative Ideas Club using Hackpad.  Here is link to prototype: https://hackpad.com/The-10-Creative-Ideas-Club-lQtZ3D1hY7x

      Keep jabbing at the dog named Resistance that protects the Muse. Keep jabbing.

  • One of my desires as a teacher and learner is to obscure the artificial boundaries that exist between formal and informal learning, 'school' and 'real life'. Such distinctions between digital connection and analog, 'face to face' connections should also be blurred.

      I think one way to do this blurring is to observe and share more of your own life.  I am beginning a series of posts called "Petty Joys" that chronicle the 'small beer' of my life, stuff I love that doesn't rise to the level of epiphany.  I am blurring the lines so that the editor in my head doesn't send out a rejection letter.  My first petty joy is the peanut butter stirrer. Watch for it.
