What is Social Media Entitlement Syndrome (SMES)? What was the inspiration to write the article?

Discussion on New Tips for Good Social Media (n)Etiquette. Dealing with weblebrities. Dating and social media, relationships being accelerated and wedding crashers. Going as far as saying “This dinner is off the 140 character record” (Sean).   The struggle between Privacy vs Transparency. “What do people mean by Transparency, we are as transparent as we choose to be, that is strategic marketing.” (Melissa)

Analogy between social media and reality tv.  Has social media changed the definition of a friendship? Discussion on stalkers, oversharers, and social climbers. “Clash of agendas (professional, vs social).” (Nicole) “Where do you set boundaries and how do you feel about people moving through your other social networks?” (Judalina)  “Implications of evaluating someone solely on Twitter for job openings – social media discrimination” (Nicole)
