You’ve read in the textbook today about different kinds of sources available to you for your research-based argumentative essay.
I’d like for you to consider for a moment other kinds of data and other kinds of unconventional research that is available to you and may prove effective. Read through the two following links:

As you can see, twitter and facebook can provide some interesting and sometimes fascinating data. Though unconventional, social media allows you to do some cutting edge research that would have been unavailable to us a mere five or ten years ago.
For today’s discussion forum, I’d like for you to “think outside the box.” Consider these two websites, and other social media sites, and I’d like to for you post some creative ways you can use social media sites to do research. For example, could you use facebook to poll or interview a select number of “friends”? If so, how would you go about doing so for your particular topic and what would the benefit of it be? Would it be a worthwhile endeavor? As another example, could you use twitter to examine what an individual’s personal stance is on a particular issue? How might you go about doing so?
Media is a fast way in the 20th century to communicate with people, where you may get to learn about different cultures and understanding this brings a form of unity throughout the negative and positive experience. He or she may use Twitter, Facebook or Instagram that can provide some interesting and sometimes fascinating data about marijuana and other topics. One you may connect with other companies that identifies different views why it should be legalized or not and it will draw attention to viewers or audiences each day and can also, educate them about issues that are been hidden.
Two is that you may get social media to capture friends and families in a creative conversation and to meet other people as you add them to your site. Which can be a form of entertainment which will become so engaging for example every morning there will be a comment, post or picture on a topic you post each day. Then you might be able to give them small gifts or trips different areas in the United States or gift cards for having a constructive conversation throughout the day which will encourage healthy behavior so this will be a form of healthy behavior or one way to hear different views. Which will then encourage more business to join the page to see what is been said and what can be proven and this can give college students a better way of learning just by using the media as an educational resource database, but just a small informal way.
I could use Facebook and other media to poll or interview a select number of friends by just doing a small background check what are their visions or interest in things. I would approach this towards my topic by asking main questions as post them have friends doing a small survey then a small reward in return to keep it lively then use all the comments and from the survey to better understand individual’s thoughts about my topic and to see if am leading to the right area to gravitate their time.
The benefit would be a two-way street where I learn from the audience and the audience is more aware of things that seem to be out of distance. This would turn out be worldwide endeavor and maybe become a new company taking about online issues or thoughts for everyone to share especially professor and students. We could you use twitter to examine what an individual’s personal stance is on a particular issue then narrow then narrow their point down into one. By posting articles as comments and highlight the facts by having online markers and having students doing mini papers which is five-points in one paragraph.
