1. I think amateur or homegrown user generated content will get better over time because i believe the technology is going to keep getting better and the quality of these peoples videos and productions are going to be extremely well done. I don't think the professional production quality will drop I believe that it will have to get even better as it now has to compete with these user generated productions.
2. I definitely find myself using Facebook the most out of all of the social media outlets. I use it because its easy to use, its also more reliable and is known to be more "factual" or "real" than Myspace. What i mean by that is the things people post and pictures and what not those are actually them saying those things, there is a lot less spam as well. Also I like how it suggest friends that you may know based on who your friends are and I like how its grouped by schools. I believe Facebook will be around for a while but eventually something will come along and bring something new and better to the table. In the social media scene nothing is perminate.
3. Transparency is an important concept in the social media world because it is so easy to hide your true motives over the internet. People now believe in what they read on these social media sites however it is so easy to be transparent its becoming questionable whether or not believing everything is a good idea. People what other people to be true in what they say, they want to know that what you wrote about that product is actually what you think not what you were told to write because someone paid you money. I think transparency is less important in the offline world because it is much harder to be transparent. However, I am sure there are people who are good at it in the real world but in my opinion it is harder to hide what you truely feel when your in real life
