  • Plano De Comunicação Em Mídias Sociais Para O Site MMA Brasil
    Plano de Comunicação em mídias sociais para o site MMA Brasil Florianópolis Novembro de 2017 1.Introdução1 O MMA Brasil, fundado em 2008, é um site sobre esportes de luta, com maior foco no MMA. Assim como outros sites que serão citados mais a frente, ele faz parte da geração de veículos de mídia que surgiram com a popularização da internet e de sites para criação de outros sites, como o Blogspot (do Google) e Wordpress. As mídias sociais são tecnologias e práticas online usadas por pessoas ou empresas para disseminar conteúdo (RECUERO, 2009, p.102 apud SOUSA; AZEVEDO, 2010), enquanto as redes sociais são os locais onde essas pessoas ou empresas se encontram (Facebook, Twitter etc.). A primeira rede social criada foi a Classmates2 em 1995, voltada a reencontros entre colegas de colégio ou faculdade. Depois disso surgiu o Six Degrees, primeiro a apresentar o modelo de mensagens privadas e postagens em murais. Paralelo a esses sites, surgia o ICQ, plataforma para mensagens instantâneas que serviu de base para o MSN Messenger e o Skype. O ICQ não é uma rede social, mas permitia a criação de grupos de chats onde pessoas com interesses em comum podiam conversar. O MySpace, da MSN, surge em 2003 com duas opções “revolucionárias”: permitia compartilhar músicas e manter um blog. Como marketing, a empresa teve como garotos propagandas Ronaldinho Gaúcho e David Beckham, que mantinham blogs atualizados na rede. Inclusive a banda Arctic Monkeys e a cantora brasileira Mallu Magalhães ganharam fama após a divulgação de suas músicas no MySpace. No ano seguinte, duas redes sociais surgiram: Facebook e Orkut.

    The Location of Culture ‘The work being done in my field, African and African-American Studies, is unimaginably richer because of Homi Bhabha’s stunning contribution to literary, historical, and cultural studies. The breadth and depth of his analysis, and the razor precision of his writing, push us all to be better, more innovative scholars, and I thank him for it.’ Henry Louis Gates, JR ‘The Location of Culture has been extraordinarily fertile for work in a variety of fields: literature, geography, architecture, politics among them. Homi Bhabha is at once radical and subtle in his method of argument and his insights have been fundamental to the flourishing of post-colonial studies.’ Gillian Beer, University of Cambridge ‘The Location of Culture is an exuberantly intelligent voyage of dis- covery and disorientation. Supple, subtle, and unafraid, its power lies in its remarkable openness to all that is challenging and unsettling in the contemporary world.’ Stephen Greenblatt, Harvard University ‘Bhabha is that rare thing, a reader of enormous subtlety and wit, a theorist of uncommon power. His work is a landmark in the exchange between ages, genres and cultures; the colonial, post-colonial, mod- ernist and postmodern.’ Edward Said ‘Homi Bhabha is one of that small group occupying the front ranks of literary and cultural theoretical thought. Any serious discussion of post-colonial/postmodern scholarship is inconceivable without refer- encing Mr Bhabha.’ Toni Morrison '\ L £ ~ () ~~ ct:o S Qrn r- • m • () ~ CI) ( m V ..q S 5 \ Routledge Classics contains the very best of Routledge publishing over the past century or so, books that have, by popular consent, become established as classics in their field.
