New Social Media Technology

 A website that we have not discussed in the class, as well as one that many would not typically think about when discussing social media technology, is Go Fund.  Go Fund Me is a website that provides communities with an online network to support each other, by promoting other users' causes or donating to their campaign. Users create a profile and set up a campaign afterwards to promote their cause and be able to receive donations via PayPal, and cryptocurrency. This website allows underfunded organizations, and movements the chance to receive financial, and social support they would not normally get or have. This helpful tool can provide many politicians and activist with a platform for their voices to be heard, and a stepping stone so that their ambitions can become actions.
