Danah vs. Lance both articles advocate for the untapped potential stored within social network sites to be inundated throughout all avenues of future knowledge regarding citizenship. Danah wrote about the social network sites falling short of the potential good they could achieve if properly exercised in society. As of now sns are filled with self centered peoples who's vanity blinds them from the greater purpose of what they are doing. the sns sites now are personal illusions being filled. Lance blames the system of learning for not being able to keep up with technology in regards of citizenship and the duties that involve such citizen ship. the institute is in the stone age and a great thing could be done if those who have the ability to accomplish great things only knew how to do so. the system has neglected its own reason for being the system and that is to be the best it can be. I agree with all of this stuff, the education of the sns to younger generations will reduce the manipulation and exploitative nature of a cheap and easily abused resource such as the Internet. i enjoyed both of these readings. and personal fulfilment is bigger in today's day and age then sense of duty to county, we only need to shift back our ideas with the tools we have to accomplish great things.
