The Digital Self

People can portray themselves online either through a true self-presentation or strategic self-presentation depending on the individual. On social media, people's profiles are meant to represent who they really are, but the idealized version presented is not entirely realistic. Most people act somewhat differently online than offline and have developed two separate personalities - one for social media and one for reality. The author wants to post humorous content like photos, articles and cartoons online to bring good vibes as well as more serious inspirational content. They also want others to share valuable, entertaining and educational content such as videos, blog posts, music, sports news and funny videos in order to inform and entertain others.

Answer the following questions about yourself as fully and precisely as you can.

Please answer in a
separate Google Docs or MS Word format not in PDF.

1. How do people portray themselves online?

Digital Identity
People can portray themselves on social networking websites or online by their true self-
presentation or their strategic self-presentation – and it all depends on an individual.

And when it comes to presenting our real selves on social media. Consider the fact that on social
media sites, we consider our profiles to be presentations of who we really are. Therefore, through
interaction with the social medium, the real and ideal selves start to intersect; and the ideal self is at
least partially actualized. Because of this, the version of ourselves we show on social media is not who
we really are. How we portray ourselves on social media is different to our offline identity. In today's
society, we are trying to put off a different image then how we are in real life.

It’s true, my identity is different online, but it is no less me. I think it is just an extension of my
personality that I feel I can’t or the people portray offline. Not everybody acts differently online than in
person but more people do than don't. It has become more of a norm in today's society to pretty much
have two personalities. One based on social media and one based in reality.

2. What are the things that you would want to post/share online?

Bringing valuable, enlightening and entertaining content to others. I want to share my humor,
mixing up my serious content with some humorous photos, articles and even cartoons. It can also be my
personal photos, a travel photo, a family photo and such. Also, the types of content I want to share
online can be inspirational, infographics, unlimited funny things – to bring good vibes and smile to the
people who’ll see it. Entertaining, inspiring, educational, convincing videos or contents.

3. What are the things you want others to share online?

I want it also to be valuable, enlightening and entertaining content to others. Educational videos.
Informative blog posts and infographics, music videos, sports news. Highlight videos and other
entertaining content. Pictures and stories about my friends and family. Funny videos and gifs,
influencers’ content, updates and pictures of events, inspirational quotes or saying, news update,
opinions, status updates that let people know what they’re up to, personal recommendations for books,
movies, restaurants, etc., secret files and confessions, or even everyday trends and many more.
