Giving shape to my topic

'Cities utilize SNS pages to promote themselves'  is actually what I want to say. I choose the topic because I hope this semester's essay performance tests would be a great opportunity to think how cities around the world that I love could be promoted and activated in novel way. However I think the these is a little bit puerile. 

 Anyway, before I started write introduction, I think I should nail down some terms and specify what i'm going to say.

• Terms.

1. Cities : The Merriam Webster Dictionary defines a city as “an inhabited place; a place larger than a village or town: a large, prominent or important center of population: a relatively permanent and highly organized center having a population with varied skills, lacking self-sufficiency in the production of food, and usually depending on manufacture and commerce to satisfy the wants of its inhabitants.”

2. SNS : Social networks are web-based services that allow individuals to create a public profile, to create a list of users with whom to share connections, and view and cross the connections within the system. (Wikipedia) It  provides means for users to interact over the Internet, such as e-mail and instant messaging.


SNS of City that I want to say in my essay means an official networking page which can communicate with public, no matter irrespective of what kind of format. This should be batter managed by government or state(province), but a private management is also okay.



I have no more idea about what I specify more. I'll add more specific information during writing!
