Today's Facebook Post

"But, like most popular and complex games, WOW also allows for ‘‘end game,’’ meaning players can continue to play even when they have reached the final goal. Eventually, when enough players have reached the highest goal, a new goal will be set to continue excitement and involvement. Similarly, the end goal of Facebook is to become a hero. This may seem strange, but it can be argued that the heroes of our time are celebrities, and social media users are aspiring toward celebrity status. Much like a first person shooter video game, users become first person paparazzi and are on a mission to make celebrities/heroes of themselves." -Angela M.
