Koobecaf- Erin Bisges
What would you do if you were asked to join a community of people who speak completely different than you do in your daily life, who live behind a screen, and who don’t talk to each other face-to-face? What if these people were going to tag your identification shortly after you joined and then proceed to poke and stalk you daily? Well, over 100 million people have already joined and embraced this modern culture called Koobecaf. But, what if you were told that you don’t need any money to live in this community, you will not be recognized by social status, you are free to express yourself about anything you choose, and that this community is more diverse and widespread than any other community in the world? Would you join then? Koobecaf’s popularity may seem difficult to understand, but, believe it or not, it fits in the American lifestyle very well. So, if we start with the big ideals of American culture we will find some major similarities that will help us to understand. First, a special thing about America is that we have freedom. In the Koobecaf culture, you are free to express yourself. You are free to say what you want when you want to say it. You are free to make yourself an individual. Achieving individuality is possibly one of the most important things that Koobecaf enables you to do. There are no limits to what you can show about yourself, no guidelines. The majority of America’s young adults spend their days in a blur of people and habitual activities. Needless to say, it is easy to feel like “just another face in the crowd” so to speak. In the Koobecaf culture, members feel as though they can shine by expressing who they are - their passions and ideals. It is through this freedom and individuality that young adults feel unified. They feel united in the culture they share; in the conversations, agreements, and disagreements they have with each other. There are some more specific reasons why Koobecaf has become so widely accepted. We can see these things in the social structure and infrastructure of America. To begin, America’s families are becoming much less traditional. This means people don’t necessarily stay where they were born their whole lives. They may not have a good family relationship or be part of a traditionally structured community. Koobecaf allows people to connect, no matter what the distance. Communities, though, are created within Koobecaf. Though some have never met face-to-face, they can create relationships. Because the culture is so far-reaching, people can easily find others with the same interests as them. Another reason Koobecaf is so widely accepted is that it allows people to mobilize. Because people can multitask while using a computer, they can take an interest in a cause they normally wouldn’t. Group messaging and creating “events” makes it easier for people to organize and get together. America’s infrastructure works well with Koobecaf to make it popular. First, America’s market economy makes Koobecaf free to anyone. This is a direct result of advertisements and sponsorships. So many people belong to the Koobecaf culture that companies cannot pass up the wonderful advertising opportunity. Koobecaf gets money from those companies – and its members don’t pay a thing. Also, it is the American competitive spirit that makes Koobecaf great! Why is this? Because if it was not for competition, like with MySpace, for example, very few people would know Koobecaf existed. Competition drives the Koobecaf founders to continually improve. When a competitor is becoming more popular because of something new, Koobecaf founders quickly jump to the challenge, making Koobecaf even better than ever before.
