Extremely Online The Untold Story of Fame, Influence and Power on the Internet

„Extremely online“ discusses the history of social media from as early as the 90s to as recent as the pandemic. This book gives a great overview, though I was a little disappointed. Although it was very informative, it often felt descriptive rather than analytical. This book rarely questions and critiques the social media phenomenon and how it shapes generations, societies and identities. Overall this book works really well as an overview but it misses the opportunity for a meta-level discussion about long term consequences and responsibility - there is no questioning of the digital world that is so well described.
