It is social media, however, of a higher level. One can learn much here and also make friends. @topstuf ...That looks tasty, are they hot peppers? Or just sweet peppers? Cheers, RickO
On a serious note
CU is a fun place to learn.....plain and simply I considered myself a better collector because of it.
I feel safe here ........educational materials are readily available as well as live 0n-line advice from most members. IT'S PRICELESS

What kind of poll was this??
I count this as an educational site, except when new posters bring their pocket change and get defiant when they hear the truth, or when threads turn political and the "disagrees" and flags start flying. In those cases, it is pure social media.
Depends on each individual post. Some are educational, some are baloney. All are social interactions. I enjoy the flame wars, and the questions from beginner's.
Walker Proof Digital Album Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
If its an advertised giveaway its fake news.
If its a parking lot penny or an AT coin being passed off as a $1000 coin its social media.
If its a question of being social media or educational its educational - just so we feel good about being here all day every day.

She asked who I voted for, for president...I told her Errorsoncoins.
Actually both, technically Social Media.
More specifically, more like a whine and cheese event.

Anti-social media.....
Or--- maybe a Special Interest Group (SIG)

Both, though I generally dislike social media and this is my only exposure to it.
An immense improvement over the official candidates or the item elected.
RogerB for VP
Odd that you mention it.
As I was going through a cherry coin lot, I found a recipe for a very tasty dish and here's a picture of the plate.
At least the VP gets to live in a nice house with a fine telescope in his backyard.
Pollster asked me if I was a member of Ashley Madison....I told her that I don't collect the First Spouse series.
Does anyone want my recipe or not?
Both !!!
I despise social media so it must be on line education.

I have always considered this is a place for education. Sort the crap out, and listen to our advice.
Social Media?
HA HA

Both.
Depends on your level of experience... For me, education.
Mostly social media. Probably 80%.
It's a classroom full of friends.

Chocolate chip peppers.
Dark chocolate goes well with hot peppers for me. CU is all that and then some. Knowledge, personalities, commonality, humanity. Peace Roy

'Generally' is the operative word there. As with beer, booze, cars or anything else you just have a brand preference

Social media is almost always educational, or at least informational. That's kind of the point.
We are more like a menace to society
