Summary | A new meme is policing how people should behave on social media. The format of the meme always goes like this: "This is Bill. Bill does [blank]. Be like him." accompanied by a stickfigure drawing of Bill. The meme is popular in various countries with different lanuguages. It shames users who overshare or post too many selfies, etc. A recent poll conducted by Bing has shown that 40% of Facebook users think their friends statuses are boring and 25% think that their friends post too many selfies.

Summary | According to a study, seniors (64+) prefer using WhatsApp and Facebook because they can connect with their grandchildren. Also, using new media make them feel young and modern. With social media, seniors feel active and integrated. However, they don't choose social media to have more relationships; most of them already are very social offline. They like WhatsApp a lot because they can create groups (family, friends, etc.) and keep in touch with everyone. They also like the fact they can stay in touch with their grandchildren and share pictures with them. Seniors like to communicate using memes, videos, and images; it is actually more difficult for them to write.
