Question? What kind of interaction between users does Facebook produce? Response Introduction Founded in 2004, social network giant Facebook has been a vital source of communication between millions of people across the globe. Facebook satisfies two primary human needs: the desire to fit in and the need for self-presentation. (Nadkarni & Hofmann, 2012) On the flipside, Facebook is capable of inducing an individual’s feelings the negative way – the fear of missing out. The participatory culture of web2.0 leads users to subconsciously spend more time on Facebook, activities unique to each individual. As Facebook has the power to bring about certain interactions between users and the power to influence, this research seeks to find out the types of interaction Facebook produces. Sample Size and Methodology The research question ‘What kind of interaction between users does Facebook produce?’ is derived and findings would be based by an interview. 8 participants selected are active users of Facebook. A structured interview, inclusive of open and close-ended questions were crafted in order to gain a better understanding of the term interaction, as people define and perceive it differently. By conducting a qualitative interview, insights can be gained as to how users engage in Facebook and the types of interaction produced. Findings and Analysis Internal interaction It was found that there was a trend of sharing Facebook statuses and articles amongst users. Social interaction that took place internally between users centered among the use of Facebook chats (ranked most popular), as well as sharing of and commenting on ‘wall posts’ and sending a ‘direct’-message. Other forms of direct communication such as responding to new friends’ requests or wishing “Happy Birthday” on one’s Facebook wall engages users in a form of social grooming that serves multiple purposes. (Lin, 2001) It was found that minority of users who are least confident use indirect communication, examples by the use of lightweight mechanisms such as ‘liking’ updates and ‘tagging’ a friend. Following these actions, a friend identifies and relates to the second user, indicating the importance of friendship, worth the merit of an action or reciprocation. Marlow (2011) states that “compared to direct messages, undirected communication has less intimate content and is usually exchanged with a larger number of weaker ties.�
