12. Consider theoretical perspectives in relation to the impact of new/digital media in your case study. E.g representation of certain groups as a result of changes, Marxism and hegemony, liberal pluralism, colonialism, audience theories..etc.

Globalisation of social networking sites - e.g different languages, used worldwide by millions. Global success.

Representation of certain groups as a result of changes e.g different age groups (users), ethnic backgrounds, different cultures and religions mixing and socialising through the use of social networking and finding long lost friends and families through the use of Facebook and Twitter.
