Social Networking Links: Netivism | Facebook | Meetup | MySpace



B's Story

In this video, B introduces himself and talks about how social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook played a major role in his social life in high school and college.



Now, B discusses his personal motivation for protesting the war generally and President Bush in particular.



When he arrived at NYU, B was determined to get involved in anti-war activism. He found ample opportunities on the Web.



By seeing what his friends were doing through Facebook's "newsfeed" feature, B discovered other political causes he wasn't aware of, some of them far closer to home. Here, he discusses his interest in the organization Open Washington Square Park. (Watch the YouTube clip B is looking at in the video here.)
