I would have agreed with you a few years ago, but being a father of two children, one who is very outgoing and one who is very shy, and seeing them have similar (yet still different) social media habits, I no longer would agree with that.

Social media today for those under 35 even is the firm handshake of days past. It's not a look at me, it is just being social at all as it is so ingrained in the lives of younger people. With the group of people who DO use social media though, there can be and are those who do it WAY too much are ARE attention whores...just like in any other social gathering. The majority of those on social media though? Nope...just socializing in today's world.

This from an old guy who continues to learn.

So?

What is being suggested by the OP is that basically the whole point of social media (does that need to be capitalized?) is narcissism (attention whoring in less polite terms).
