Networked Trust & the Future of Media
Americans believe the civic information ecosystem is collapsing. Trust in journalism has declined in the past generation, and news media now draw polarized audiences. Public confidence in social media as a news and information source has never been strong, and people today say social media firms cannot be trusted to be objective or impartial information curators of political discourse or stewards of their users’ personal data. This adds up to pub…
Classifying Twitter Topic-Networks Using Social Network Analysis
As users interact via social media spaces, like Twitter, they form connections that emerge into complex social network structures. These connections are indicators of content sharing, and network structures reflect patterns of information flow. This article proposes a conceptual and practical model for the classification of topical Twitter networks, based on their network-level structures. As current literature focuses on the classification of us…
If Romeo and Juliet had mobile phones
How did the absence of mobile phones affect the romantic life and death of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet? The difference in their situation would have been part of the social change to networked individualism from group-based societies. The Mobile Revolution would have afforded personal communication rather than the household-centered communication of the Montagues and the Capulets. Romeo and Juliet would have been always available to each other…
Networked
How social networks, the personalized Internet, and always-on mobile connectivity are transforming—and expanding—social life.Daily life is connected life, its rhythms driven by endless email pings and responses, the chimes and beeps of continually arriving text messages, tweets and retweets, Facebook updates, pictures and videos to post and discuss. Our perpetual connectedness gives us endless opportunities to be part of the give-and-take of netw…
How libraries can survive in the new media ecosystem
Se comentan resultados de los estudios realizados sobre los cambios producidos en el ecosistema de la informaciÃ3n y la comunicaciÃ3n en la era digital. CÃ3mo se usan internet y la telefonía mÃ3vil para trabajar, jugar y para interactuar a través de las redes sociales. Este nuevo entorno ha cambiado la manera en que las bibliotecas y los bibliotecarios prestan servicio a sus usuarios. Se plantea la necesidad de que las bibliotecas se conviertan e…
The Internet as social ally
How do people use the internet to solve problems? Employing quantitative and qualitative data from two surveys, one in which a random selection of the U.S population responded and one in which a self-selected group of people responded, we argue that individuals use different sources and channels to seek information and assistance, depending on the problem they face. We find that a significant portion of online Americans turn to the internet at ti…
The Internet and Social Participation
The Internet opens new options for communication and may change the extent to which people use older communication media. Changes in the way people communicate are important, because communication is the mechanism people use to develop and maintain social relationships, so valuable for their physical and mental health. This paper uses data from a national panel survey conducted in 2000 and 2001 to examine the influence of Internet use on communic…
The Numbers That Count
Days and Nights on the Internet
For a growing cohort of Americans, Internet tools have become a significant conduit of social life and work life. The surveys of the Pew Internet & American Life Project in 2000 show that more than 52 million Americans went online each day, and there are significant differences in use between men and women, young and old, those of different races and ethnic groups, and those of different socioeconomic status. A user typology can be built around t…
