A growing number of kids at increasingly younger ages are engaging in online social networking today—a development that is leading to a surge of news stories, media attention, and economic investment. These shifts in usage and public discussion demand a better understanding of the ways that social networking sites mediate kids’ socializing and the opportunities and limits they place on kids’ participation.
This paper is a first step in that direction.
Here we attempt to establish what we already know about kids’ social networking activities and identify key gaps in our collective knowl- edge of these as-yet-emerging practices. This paper also addresses the underlying question of how kids’ social networking is defined and delineated: What is it we are referring to when we talk about kids and online social networking? What technologies, activities, and platforms are involved? Who is included in this discussion, and who and what are being left out?
