Week 3 Topic 2 - Yes That One!

I only want to keep this one sort and rise a couple of key points when expressing ourselves online.

To Show Or Not To Show Our Identities?! - As the are showing our identities in the first place on these blogs/social networking sites, we should be at liberty to portray ourselves as we want. I mean there isn't exactly a law saying we have to be exact in our describtions. If I was a ballet dancer (this is an example by the way!), i can choose whether i want to share that with everyone.

Full Names? - Should we have to show our full names? No. I don't think anyone does as in general we prefer our nick names. It keeps the whole experience more casual than making it look very formal and business like. There sites are here for our enjoyment and entertainment. Even on this very blog I've put myself down as Drewseph instead of Andrew John Oliver as it's more social and easier to remember!
