Personality and the use of facebook
While i was doing research for my group paper I came across this article that briefly discusses the influence of ones personality on the way they use facebook. I found this extremely interesting that research has actually been done on this. I know there are a few groups doing their papers on facebook so i thought it would be useful to post it. But just to briefly summarize it, extroverted people self disclose and communicate more frequently on facebook. In addition, introverted people use facebook to compensate for their lack of social skills which resulted in more online based friendships.
