So as a communications student I am always looking at many companies who use social media and websites to get audiences to watch, engage or even join the team. This week I was assigned a research paper that would go into detail about a business that has utilized social media so well, that they seem to advance into the 21st century online world with ease. I chose SuicideGirls. I cannot wait to dive into this paper and educate my professor on this amazing organization. I think it will knock his socks off (or maybe even his pants). The usage of the online world by SuicideGirls is incredibly strong and skilled. I find little to critique. I find that by letting the models make their own social media sites it makes the reach go even further for the company. The ideologies of SG to make use of online media is strikingly efficient and effect, as I just read on the word press site (suicidegirlspress.com). This paper will be a breeze to write. Thank you SG for being a fabulous specimen to research.

Having been a part of this community over 10 years, I think they've moved too far away from the social aspect to more of what I would call an "eye candy" environment. The site design prior to the current one was significantly more social/interaction friendly. This one is more visual. Personally, I miss the sense of community the old site fostered.
