Information sharing activities in communities has four categories as stated by (Dron & Anderson, 2014), Strategic sharing, paradigmatic sharing, directive sharing and social sharing. Reflecting on my social network, I have discovered that I need to be strategically sharing information with my connections where I make a conscious strategic effort of maximizing efficiency rather than only sharing information for social, paradigmatic or directive purposes.<\/p>\n

My visual network consists of diverse connections used for sharing information and general updates. For example, I currently connect with people through seven networks. Professionally, I connect through institutions like: Royal Roads University, Previous employers (InterContinental Hotel Group, Rotana Hotel Group, Extensya). Combining these networks together, twelve more sub-categories emerge.<\/p>\n

What does this tell me? How will I be using this visual map in the future?<\/p>\n

If I utilize my networks for sharing information strategically, I can give a louder conscious voice for my digital identity in the online space!<\/p>\n
