This is really fascinating, and I've heard similar stories from my younger cousins about maintaining multiple accounts on FB, Instagram, etc. "Real" social media = your fake life "Fake" social media = your real life edit: Although, as I think about this, it's not much different from those of us who are a generation or two removed from the people in the story. I was on a call with a salesperson from a large company last week, so I googled him to put a face to a name. His linkedin featured a professional picture with a suit and tie, paragraphs written in the third person (like account executives have biographers?), and we had a dozen mutual connections in common. Connected with 500+ people. His facebook profile told a very different story of vacations, beach voleyball, parties, family events, and life. Connected with 100 people.
