We Eat Social Media For Breakfast 

            Social Media is a huge hit in this generation. The author creates a audience that connects to all ages. I think the diction is very powerful because in the article it talks about memories and that's what life is made out of. Of course, all people are going to relate to memories. It is about sharing memories with people who were there and not there.

            The author uses diction by referring back to when he was a kid. He talks about this certain memory about films. He remembers going to a store, and excited about getting a film developed. That was the thing to do and once that film was developed you got to share those pictures  and trying to figure out what holiday that was. Then he refers back to how this generation truly is because most teenagers have iPhones or Galaxys and being able to have the date on the picture already there for them. They do not need to go to a store to get that picture developed it is already in the cloud. In this generation we tend to post our memories onto social media whether it be a cool quote picture or of a family event. We post onto any social media platform and people who knows us sees it and people who may not know us sees it also. Sometimes it is all just for attention and bragging privileges. He uses syntax by stating that it is not the same if we post that memory onto social media because sometimes you just only want to share that memory with one individual instead of the whole world. 

                The tone in this article is informing and personal. It is informing because he describes how technology changes over time and discusses the origin of the word. Apparently, each generation seems to have a different or change slightly in technology compared to the generation below them. He has some humor by using the term narcissistic sharer as a person that who shares legit everything about them. Whether it be what time they woke up to their current relationship arguments. In a sense social media defines us because it is basically our life through images. By having social media in this generation we have more opportunities to meet new people; whether it be a opportunity for something or just making new friends. This article clearly uses diction and syntax by trying to reach to an audience for all ages, which it did.
