Do you see a problem with how readers are reacting to the Twilight series?

My problem is that some of readers of the Twilight series are being too dramatic. Compares to other movies out there similar to Twilight I don't see people making thousands of blogs, and becoming "real" vampires. If parents are really that concerned about what their children are out of the Twilight series, then please just take the books away from them.

Do you like the structure of Dracula – reading the story in the form of journals, diaries, newspaper clippings, etc?

I do like reading Dracula in a journal, dairy, and newspaper clipping like forms. It makes the story seems more realistic, instead of your typical fantasy vampires fiction. Like twilight it uses the realistic structures to make the subject of vampirism appeal to a wide variety of audience.

Question: Would you recommend Dracula to a friend...

Personally I somewhat would recommend Dracula to my vampire-liking friends. The only thing I find uninteresting in Dracula is the beginning of the book. It quite slow almost boring. Compared to Twilight's being Dracula is dry.

Question: Do you think that the internet and social media can make a real difference in the world? Have you ever seen social change happen because of something someone wrote?

I do think the internet and social media can make a difference in the world.  For instance, compare 2012 and 1993, the year in which i was born. Computers let along internet were not available to a majority of people. Through the internet and social media people are able to change themselves into totally different people, and nothing like how they are in person. On the social sites like Facebook and twitter people can get into written fights, and the next think you know the one said person is on the other person's doorstep beating the crap out of them.
