What does it mean to leverage social networks? To leverage social networks, is to use social networks in order to promote their product, such as using it as a tool for advertising. Define digimarketing. Digimarketing basically is marketing, but based and interacted with the social media. Businesses would do advertising, selling products, etc. online for customers that are online. Explain the mistakes marketers make with social networking. Marketers are not using the 'social' side of the social networking sites as an advantage, and just promoting, instead of interacting with their customers.

Does the Net allow more freedom or is it a tool for governments and businesses to control us? The Net allows both. The users can roam freely to their discretion where and what they want to put onto the web. It is just a matter of a country censoring the content, or the user self-censoring what is to be put on the web. Also, the governments and businesses both can use the Net to their advantage. The government can learn and find out various information of various individuals and trends of the public through the Net's social networking websites and other portal that have discussion between citizens themselves. Business are able to keep track of trends to see what is happening, such as the stock prices to what people like to eat, listen to, what they like to use. Thus the businesses are able to stay in business a little easier through knowing the information from the web. The businesses can also advertise themselves through the net, and that way, it is actually faster than having actual offline campaigns and advertisement. Therefore, the net can allow us both. We are free to use it more than let it control us. It's just a matter of fact that higher class society, social ranking, or economic status-ed has more chances to controlling the net due to their connections with the higher ups. Yet, censorship and surveillance is everywhere, and thus doesn't allow absolute freedom.
