This is a good article from the Poynter Institute, a Florida-based foundation that provides training for folks in the communication business.
The article focuses on a recent New York Times study that asked people why they share links to news stories on Facebook, Twitter, or email news stories to friends and families.
Check out the "five primary motivations for sharing" and then check out the "six types of people who share." I think I fit into three categories, "selective," "connector," and, sigh, "careerist."
Tell me what category you fit into.
