The stories that caught my eye this week...
Sunday, August 9, 2009 by Technoculture and New Media
Three news stories from the UK media have caught my eye this past week.
The first looks at the suggestion that youth are starting to leave social networking sites and that {gasp} it might be the oldies that are driving them away: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/aug/06/young-abandon-social-networking-sites
The second reports on the sometimes tragic consequences of teenagers 'sexting': http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2009/aug/07/sexting-teenagers-mobile-phones
And the third sets about 'debunking' the claims made in a recently popular YouTube video about Muslim immigration in Europe: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/8189231.stm
