"Facebook is a mirror and Twitter is a megaphone..." SO TRUE! When did creative & innocent sharing on social media ferment in a bogus sense of fufillment?

Savannah Powell's curator insight, March 25, 2014 2:41 AM

I found this site's reason for linking social media and narcissism much more intriguing compared to the other articles that I read. Although others had previously said that narcissists would use social media more frequently in order to gain the attention that they seek, I thought it was really inventive the way that they decided to study it.  By comparing how much time they spend posting vs. how much time they spend looking at others' posts, I think that's a much better view of actually looking at what narcissism is about.
