Who owns the media

Changes in the media have definitely affected my life. I was not used to using social networking sites to meet people when everybody else had a facebook. Three years ago when I first came to college I did not have a facebook. Everybody else had already met their roomates through facebook and had made some friends that were in their dorms through facebook. I on the other hand had not. I was not part of any networks and I didn't know anybody through facebook. I felt somewhat disconnected because I didn't know things about people I had never met before meeting them, like alot of the other freshman did.
I don't have a facebook now either and it definitely affects me. My friends always tell me to get one, like it will somehow affect them in some way. It seems like somebody could throw a party and not tell anybody about it in real life, but people will still come because it is on facebook. It makes me feel slightly disconnected but not enough to have a facebook. I think it makes other people more uncomfortable that I don't exsist in internet and they cannot identify me because of it. They can't read my profile or look at my pictures and therefore they cannot judge me in the way that they can judge people with a facebook, and this makes them uncomfortable or uneasy.
