Write a short paper 750 words in length on Why People Use Facebook

  • How does this research fit into the big picture?  Connect your article with the lessons from the week or the course as a whole.  (1-2 paragraphs)

Please consider the following: 

  • Please use APA format.  See the attached paper for an example of an APA paper.
