Proposal

I will be expanding my social media essay on Ian Daly.  I have chosen this essay because I feel that I wasn't broad enough, in other words, wasn't looking at the big picture.  Now that I am aware of this, I feel that I can make this paper much stronger.  My plan for expanding my paper is to use Ian Daly as more of reference rather than my whole essay revolved around him.  When I made my paper 90% about Daly, I found myself running out of things to talk about and didn't get away from his ideas enough.  I will talk about how technology overall affects people's lifestyles rather than just social media.  I will also use personal experiences about my social media accounts.  I will look for facts and statistics helping my claim that social media and technology change the way people live.  Some key words and terms I will use to find additional research:

• virtual communication
• virtual identity
• changes in technology 
• technology and children
• kids growing up around technology
• social media accounts and kids
