It might be a given that when you post something online, it
goes across the world. What doesn’t seem to be such a given is what that means
and what sort of impact it carries. When we share something, what borders are
we really crossing and what sort of boundaries are we penetrating?
A border doesn’t have to be so straight forward. While it’s
true that we’re crossing state and international borders when we send out a
tweet, there might be more to it than we think. There are other borders, such
as religious separation or cultural changes that we’re jumping over. In the age
where even social causes have seen more support than every from websites such
as Tumblr, what other borders are we pushing when we hit the share button?
