__ ** How active are yourself in Web2.0, what role does it play in your life (private, student)? ** __
==== In 2008 when I first came to Switzerland, I have heard Facebook before but never used it. From now on I have more than 400 friends on Facebook. I used to use letters, Email and SMS but now I found internet the quickest way of talking to them. More important, most of our phones can be accessible to internet. Interact with them become one of the “must to do” thing in my daily life. In addition, I also use Google, Skype, Wikipedia, Twitter (Chinese sina Twitter), Myspace regularly to express myself, share my ideas and opinions. As I am abroad and my family is far away from me, I contact with them daily free of using skype, upload and post some pictures of my daily life on my blog instead of waiting and sending them via e-mail. The value of using social media is not only a tool for transforming information, but as for me, it is a mean of building families, friendships and communities. ====
