Which are the incentives for us to use social media? Which are the pros and cons in using social media? The objective with this dissertation is to exam what people experience by using Instagram and Snapchat. Which are the pros and cons with publishing posts and read what others are publishing? In this dissertation I have choosen to limit my scope to the media Instagram and Snapchat. The underlaying reasons for this is that Instagram is the most used social media in the everyday Swedish life and that Snapchat is a social media with 20% usage. I have used the ambition to find out what makes the use of Instagram and Snapchat interesting and what others experience with the use of these media.
