Social information seeking

Social information seeking is when someone uses the internet or other platforms to find information. When you want to know something, you can use the internet to look for information about it. This could be about a person, a place, a product, or anything else. You might search for information about a person by looking up their name, or about a place by searching for it on a map. You can also use social media or message boards to ask questions and get advice from other people. This kind of research helps you know more about something and make decisions.
