    Just had this email from Twitter

    I received a peer recognition @viewbug viewbug.com/photo/59102733 #photocontest

    When I opened it I saw this

    Can you tell me what a peer recognition is please? I'm a little confused.

    The picture is of Towen beach in Newquay by the way

    In this case, members of a collective group, talents and experience may be equal to your own or more so.

    Hi Louise.

    Your peers are people pretty much like you, and my peers are people pretty much like me.

    So "peer recognition" means being appreciated by people pretty much like whoever is writing.

    . . . hence the phrase "peer group pressure".

    Which is the influence from one peer or more usually a group of peers to persuade you to do or not do something or to change your opinion.

    The main aim being to maintain conformity throughout the group of each member's thoughts and actions - and very often, that's not very at all good - (that last bit is my opinion).

    I just like the fact that my peers are not my superiors....
