Abstract
This study discusses the motivation of information sharing activities in social media. Types of information reviewed are personal, sensational, political, casual, and experience. Social media categories reviewed are social networking sites, microblogging sites, wikis, online blogs, and online forums. Responses from 255 respondents were processed using descriptive statistical methods. The results show that one's motivation in sharing information tends to be consistent for each type of information, that is to share the impression of social media users on a matter.
