Prior to entering this course, I had very little understanding of what social media is really doing with my identity. For me, I was always under the belief that my identity was only shared with whoever I chose to share it with. It is somewhat scary to think that search engines and identity aggregation services can collect and sell information about me and the people I communicate with through a variety of social media sites. Social Media is allowing more and more people are creating, sharing and exchanging information and ideas on the worldwide web.
