| Abstract: | The new school year in Serbia is about to start, and Serbian daily newspapers and journals publish numerous articles on the bad effects of the most popular social network1, Facebook, frightening both parents and young people with negative and techno anti-utopian statements. A survey2 on the usage of Facebook among the youth in Serbia has been published recently, too, however, and its results suggest that things aren't really that bad.
Having in mind such an environment, the online public sphere created on the networking sites is no different, and the problems are magnified. There are numerous places where young people in Serbia spend their time online, and one of the most popular ones is Facebook. |
