Google's Trojan Horse: Facebook
I finally found an article that I found rather interesting. This paper was basically about facebook and it's ups and downs, and how people have strange relationships and what not on it. I enjoyed it because I like facebook. A lot. Hahaha! I'm going to admit, I'm a facebook addict! But, that's not a bad thing. At least I don't obsess over it. I'm not to that stage, and I won't allow myself to get that far. Anyways, the rhetorical strategies that work on me are the ones that have to deal with pathos and stuff like that that I can relate to. I really don't care too much about ethos. I mean, I could care less who the person thinks or says they are. Sorry, to say, but it's true. I just don't really care. Logos works on me only part of the time. If the subject really grabs my attention or is something I'm actually and generally interested in, then, that's the time where logos is interesting. Plus, logos are those kinds of things I find myself saying in small talk to make myself sound smart....! HAHAHA! You know you all do it! I just admitted it, and it's just one of those things that ends up coming out in those boring, this-is-a-little-awkward-talking-to-this-person kind of situation. Anyways, I respond to this article more to others is the simple fact that I like to facebook.
