What Are Ethyl Sprays?

FEES, public opinion, the pulse of the country and courses of action

The community of social networks is especially important qualitatively process of forming what we call "public opinion." But it is NOT the public. Is a group that should be taken into account but not the only nor the most important. I say this because I have the impression that in recent months has been overestimating the role it plays in society, especially because some issues that suddenly light up controversy in the 2.0 world end up being more or less public decision in line as discussed in the virtual community.

But watch out, this only happens when the mass media take up the gauntlet. If social networks have the influence that some attribute, other issues would have a consequence. Examples are many. It was not enough the massive body of much of this community for Greivin Moya was referring to the questions put to him on the blog Tico Hell. The accusations were not only not answered, but were systematically ignored by the rest of the media, and therefore go unnoticed. It is expected to happen with the doubts that Alexander Trejos out in his blog on the amount of followers in Twitter Amelia Rueda. If no means gives ball to Alexander, it is likely that doubts remain unclear.

And in this we must be clear: the media continue to use what happens here to enhance some topics, or to strengthen validity of public interest, "coincides ONLY AND ONLY IF your current interest. Do not talk about conspiracies or anything like that, it just depends on whether that goes beyond the issue under discussion in the cyberworld is interesting for the media, to reach national status issue.

these thoughts because I think some may be incorrectly assessing the representativeness of the social networks. It is important that we are speaking, but not the only or most important. It's convenient to believe, but no less wrong. Take the pulse of the country requires more than turning on a computer and enter into Twitter or Facebook. And define courses of action requires the consideration of additional elements, a systematic and rigorous collection of data, ongoing contact with different sectors, to promote the objective knowledge of the differing views. Otherwise the decision will be partial, and sooner or later show their limitations.
