Social Research

- Social Network sites such as Facebook and Twitter have a much higher audience than any other sites, they are a way of communication so traffic is always high. Has 800 million members on Facebook, 50% of these log on daily. These websites mean advertising can now be digital, interactive, animated and are often a small size to fit in a corner of a laptop/computer screen.


- Environmental issues relating to advertising could include that digital vs paper means less trees are being cut down, less chemicals being used in inks as not as much is being printed.


Ethical and moral? Should large companies be allowed to access you through viral email/pop up on your computer screen and violate their way into your pockets/home? Communication is no longer face to face, sales men at the door and leaflets being posters, flyers being posted. Even this can be seen through students - handing out posters for nights our - now facebook groups and online guest lists instead!
