I need some assistance with these assignment. the main form of communication on the platform Thank you in advance for the help! Whereas people can only sit on a computer or phone and chat with friends on platforms such as Facebook, the prototype social media site would bring increased involvement by introducing augmented reality. For instance, distant learners would be able to use the platform to learn and have almost the same learning experience with students in the physical class. The proposed social media platform will eliminate the historical problem of social media platforms based on past information (Preece and Shneiderman 2009, p.7). For example, as people read other comments on what has already happened on Twitter, our platform would provide an opportunity for members to experience the real world as it happens to other members by subscribing to live streams of other member’s google glass augmented reality feed.

The main form of communication on the platform is the use of written communication. However, the platform also allows for video chats and it can accommodate a relatively large group simultaneously engaging in the same discussion. Therefore, members can opt to engage in video calls instead of using written messages. Additionally, the platform allows for sending and posting of pictures. Conversations related to administrator posts are open for all members to view but individual posts are controlled by the member posting hence they can choose to make them public or private to be viewed only by selected members. There is no limit as to the number of people who can join the platform and or the geographical location. However, for people to interact there is a need for integration in an inner circle tagged ‘friends’. This is to encourage interactions since the underlying notion of friendships allows people to feel comfortable hence increased participation (Boyd and Heer 2006, p.2). The platform only requires the internet and it can be accessed at any time whether day or night. Moreover, member participation is unlimited hence there can be as many posts and comments as a member wishes. However, public posts should strictly be related to entertainment issues to maintain the purpose of the platform.
