Biblioteca, 31080 Pamplona, España [email protected] Resumen Cada vez más es reconocida la relevancia en el entorno digital de los “líderes de opinión” o usuarios influyentes: aquellos que por medio de su actividad online (publicación de tweets y entradas en blogs, actualización de su estado en las redes sociales, recomendación de lecturas…), cumplen con la función de crear contenidos o de filtrarlos hacia personas sobre las que tienen ascendencia. Por eso han proliferado las herramientas que evalúan la influencia de una persona o marca a través de la monitorización de su uso de los medios sociales. Se analizan las dos más importantes: Klout y PeerIndex. Se explican los parámetros que constituyen la base de sus algoritmos de medición, así como sus carencias. La comprensión de cómo se ejerce y cómo puede medirse la influencia digital es una de las cuestiones más interesantes del fenómeno 2.0.

  • The Scoring of America: How Secret Consumer Scores Threaten Your Privacy and Your Future
    World Privacy Forum The Scoring of America: How Secret Consumer Scores Threaten Your Privacy and Your Future By Pam Dixon and Robert Gellman April 2, 2014 Brief Summary of Report This report highlights the unexpected problems that arise from new types of predictive consumer scoring, which this report terms consumer scoring. Largely unregulated either by the Fair Credit Reporting Act or the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, new consumer scores use thousands of pieces of information about consumers’ pasts to predict how they will behave in the future. Issues of secrecy, fairness of underlying factors, use of consumer information such as race and ethnicity in predictive scores, accuracy, and the uptake in both use and ubiquity of these scores are key areas of focus. The report includes a roster of the types of consumer data used in predictive consumer scores today, as well as a roster of the consumer scores such as health risk scores, consumer prominence scores, identity and fraud scores, summarized credit statistics, among others. The report reviews the history of the credit score – which was secret for decades until legislation mandated consumer access -- and urges close examination of new consumer scores for fairness and transparency in their factors, methods, and accessibility to consumers. About the Authors Pam Dixon is the founder and Executive Director of the World Privacy Forum. She is the author of eight books, hundreds of articles, and numerous privacy studies, including her landmark Medical Identity Theft study and One Way Mirror Society study. She has testified before Congress on consumer privacy issues as well as before federal agencies.

  • Using Facebook Metrics to Measure Student Engagement in Moodle
    IJODeL, Vol. 2, No. 2, (December 2016) Using Facebook Metrics to Measure Student Engagement in Moodle Leonardo Magno Senior Editor, Publishing Team, Asian Development Bank, [email protected] Abstract Facebook uses engagement rates as a metric for social media managers and marketers to measure how efectively a page, a post, a comment, a brand, or a topic is able to engage the target audience. Studies have proposed the use of these metrics for other types of online measurements in applications and industries other than social media. This concept paper proposes the use of a modifed Facebook engagement rate formula to (i) measure students’ engagement with forum posts using virtual learning environments such as Moodle and (ii) get data from students regarding which topics or posts engage them more in the learning process. While virtual learning environments have their own logs and learning analytics software, and studies have explored the use of Facebook as a discrete and supplementary platform to traditional learning management systems, this paper flls the research gap by applying Facebook’s engagement rate formula to Moodle itself. Applying an existing social media audience engagement formula to an online course may provide instructors and educational institutions valuable feedback on what types of posts, comments, or topics make students interact and engage more in online learning sessions. Such an exercise may lead to new metrics which distance learning institutions could use to calibrate their content with the objective of improving students’ interaction and engagement with instructors, fellow students, and the online course in general. Keywords: Facebook, Moodle, social media, engagement rate, learning analytics Introduction Virtual learning environments like Moodle and Blackboard—sometimes referred to as online course platforms or learning management systems—come with their own analytics and reporting tools either as built-in features or as plug-in software.

  • Gendered Visibility on Social Media: Navigating Instagram’S Authenticity Bind
    International Journal of Communication 13(2019), 4983–5002 1932–8036/20190005 Gendered Visibility on Social Media: Navigating Instagram’s Authenticity Bind BROOKE ERIN DUFFY1 Cornell University, USA EMILY HUND University of Pennsylvania, USA Although the digital economy’s guiding logics of attention and visibility rouse social media users to put themselves out there, individuals experience digital visibility in profoundly uneven ways. For women, in particular, the public nature of online communication is fraught with risk, opening the potential for ridicule, hate, and harassment. This research explores the vexed nature of visibility among Instagram content creators, a community that is especially beholden to this so-called “visibility mandate.” Drawing on in-depth interviews with 25 aspiring and professional Instagrammers, we show how they attempt to stave off potential critique in patterned ways. In their efforts to project themselves as authentic, many sought to deflect accusations of being too real, and, alternatively, as being not real enough. We argue that this uniquely gendered form of a socially mediated “authenticity bind” indexes the wider policing of women and other marginalized communities in digitally networked spaces, wherein they must carefully toe the line between visibility and vulnerability. Keywords: social media, visibility, gender, authenticity, Instagram, influencers Guided by the social media economy’s logics of attention and reputation, Internet users are roused to pursue markers of visibility in the form of likes, favorites, comments, and retweets. On the surface, at least, it seems the greater one’s visibility, the better; careers are borne, new social connections forged, and opportunities for status and professional success abound (e.g., Abidin, 2016; Banet-Weiser, 2012; Cotter, 2018; Duffy, 2017; Marwick, 2013; Schaefer, 2012).

Paralelamente a la función desarrollada en esa dirección por los medios periodísticos, también en el ámbito digital emerge con fuerza la figura de “líderes de opinión” o influentials: aquellos que, por medio de su actividad online (publicación de tweets y entradas en blogs, actualización de su estado en redes sociales, recomendación de lecturas, etc.) y de manera más o menos consciente, cumplen con la función bien de crear contenidos, bien de filtrarlos hacia personas sobre las que ejercen influencia personal. A este respecto, ha adquirido una creciente relevancia el índice Klout, que evalúa la influencia de una persona o una marca a través del análisis de su presencia en medios sociales. Basándose en algoritmos que cuantifican más de 35 variables, Klout determina de 0 a 100 el índice de influencia del usuario y categoriza su liderazgo (experto, creador de tendencias, activista, famoso, etc.).

    Indexing The World Wide Web: The Journey So Far Abhishek Das Google Inc., USA Ankit Jain Google Inc., USA ABSTRACT In this chapter, we describe the key indexing components of today’s web search engines. As the World Wide Web has grown, the systems and methods for indexing have changed significantly. We present the data structures used, the features extracted, the infrastructure needed, and the options available for designing a brand new search engine. We highlight techniques that improve relevance of results, discuss trade-offs to best utilize machine resources, and cover distributed processing concept in this context. In particular, we delve into the topics of indexing phrases instead of terms, storage in memory vs. on disk, and data partitioning. We will finish with some thoughts on information organization for the newly emerging data-forms. INTRODUCTION The World Wide Web is considered to be the greatest breakthrough in telecommunications after the telephone. Quoting the new media reader from MIT press [Wardrip-Fruin , 2003]: “The World-Wide Web (W3) was developed to be a pool of human knowledge, and human culture, which would allow collaborators in remote sites to share their ideas and all aspects of a common project.” The last two decades have witnessed many significant attempts to make this knowledge “discoverable”. These attempts broadly fall into two categories: (1) classification of webpages in hierarchical categories (directory structure), championed by the likes of Yahoo! and Open Directory Project; (2) full-text index search engines such as Excite, AltaVista, and Google. The former is an intuitive method of arranging web pages, where subject-matter experts collect and annotate pages for each category, much like books are classified in a library.
