This week’s readings prompt us to think about networked societies and the importance of digital tools and spaces. Since there has been a massive increase in the use of technological advances to improve and develop society and form connections over media platforms, I believe it is very likely that individuals will continue to create content within their network. Creating content is an element of our culture that enables connections, the development of skills and creates new situations for access and sharing of information. Additionally, Del Giudice (2013) discusses how networks take into account social and economic environments and how communities are built through shared content in their network that maintains and fosters these environments. Though they can be expressed or shown in different forms depending on the environment and the type of content that is created, the key goal is to build connections and enable opportunities for self-communication. In this generation, mass self-communication has been demonstrated through various social media platforms and it allows for information to be shared about communities and individuals alike. The skills that have been developed through networked societies can foster and build on skills like effective communication, adaptability, leadership, and creative thinking. While settings can vary and change depending on the profession, it is important to recognize how these skills can transform how businesses and organizations are run on a local and global scale.
