Sumario:Social networks have generated a series of changes within social dynamics,the construction of identities, and with it, the ways that we represent ourselvesas persons. The level of change has been so high that we have lostboundaries between how we relate to other people, and the limits of whatcan be considered as private and public, even reaching levels of "spectacularization".In this way, we have fallen into the obsession of recognition andthe opening of our privacy, and, therefore, we only want to show ourselvesas perfect people in all areas, that is, an open window to sell me as a perfectperson. This paper explores this dynamic from the timely description of profilesof several people, in order to highlight the new ways of generating the"first impression".
