Social media uses web-based technologies to turn communication into interactive dialogues. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as "a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, which allows the creation and exchange of user-generated content."[1] Businesses also refer to social media as consumer-generated media (CGM). Social media utilization is believed to be a driving force in defining the current time period as the Attention Age. A common thread running through all definitions of social media is a blending of technology and social interaction for the co-creation of value. Distinction from industrial media People gain information, education, news, etc., by electronic media and print media. Social media are distinct from industrial or traditional media, such as newspapers, television, and film. They are relatively inexpensive and accessible to enable anyone (even private individuals) to publish or access information, compared to industrial media, which generally require significant resources to publish information.

En España se ha suscitado uno de los casos más interesantes de movimiento de usuarios de redes sociales: jóvenes y adolescentes españoles mantuvieron durante algunos años una frecuencia de participación notable en la red social Tuenti, abandonándola progresivamente al trasladarse hacia Facebook, una red similar con notable carácter internacional.

    Motivations for using five SNSs 1 Running Head: Motivations for using five SNSs Motivation scale for using Social Network Sites: comparative study between Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and LinkedIn. Alexandra Masciantonioa and David Bourguignona aUniversité de Lorraine, Metz, France This manuscript is not yet published. Corresponding author: Full postal address: Alexandra Masciantonio. Université de Lorraine, UFR Sciences Humaines et Sociales, Laboratoire PErSEUs. Ile du Saulcy, BP 60228, 57045 METZ, cedex 01, France. E-mail address: [email protected] This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors. Motivations for using five SNSs 2 Abstract. The increasing number of social network sites (SNS) and their changing nature raise the question of why people use them. This research has a twofold objective: first, to develop a motivation scale for using SNSs; second, to compare the utilization of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and LinkedIn. Two studies on 364 university students, using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, established six motivations: entertainment, social interaction, seeking information, instrumental use, self-documentation and self-enhancement. Contrary to previous studies, Facebook use was not related with social interaction or self-enhancement. Like LinkedIn, the use of the platform was rather associated with peer pressure. The results also revealed that new practices - such as social selling - affect the use of SNS: Instagram and Snapchat were driven by this kind of instrumental needs. As expected, Twitter use satisfied mainly informational needs. The results are discussed by applying a cross-media perspective to new motives behind SNSs use.

  • European Commission
    EUROPEAN COMMISSION PRESS RELEASE Brussels, 21 March 2013 EU says we should glorify our entrepreneurs:Skype; Spotify and Angry Birds creators advise EU – first stage of "Startup Europe" campaign Most people think of Silicon Valley in the United States when they think about technology and entrepreneurs – the European Commission wants young Europeans to be inspired by home-grown entrepreneurs, so their bright ideas start and stay in Europe. With help from the creators of Spotify, Angry Birds, Tuenti, Skype, SeedCamp, HackFwd, London's Tech City and TheNextWeb, the Commission is creating a platform for star entrepreneurs to tell their stories of inspirations and frustration, to wake-up young Europeans and leaders to the potential of entrepreneurial careers. "Europeans need to be creative and fearless. That's how dozens of the world's most exciting web and tech companies were born in the EU, and I want the world to know it," said Neelie Kroes, European Commission Vice President, "I want young entrepreneurs to have role models, and for them to have a real digital single market to grow their ideas in." The Startup Europe Leaders Club is the first part of Startup Europe, the European Commission's 6-part plan to accelerate and connect local entrepreneurship ecosystems in Europe to help tech start-ups to start and grow in Europe and to scale up to a global level. Members of the Startup Europe Leaders Club are living proof that web entrepreneurship can be a hugely rewarding career. Neelie Kroes said "These people didn't just talk about doing something, they went and did it.

  • Snapchat. the Danger of the Ephemeral Article By
    Snapchat. The danger of the ephemeral Article by Lorena Fernández Álvarez (Director of Digital Identity Studies at Deusto University), who imparted the course titled 'How do young people create and manage their digital identities?’ at the Basque Youth Observatory on 3, 10 and 17 November, 2015. We are now beginning to educate the first generation of young people who have been born in the era of social networks and smartphones. That is to say, they have never known a world without them. However, what they have known are a number of applications that they use before going on to others at lightning speed. The same speed with which they abandoned Tuenti, leaving an empty platform. Twitter is still holding on, only just, thanks to celebrities and the use of hashtags on television programmes. Facebook, no matter how hard it tries, is unable to attract that young audience and, therefore, it has gone on a shopping spree to acquire two new fashionable spaces: Instagram, the kingdom of selfies and WhatsApp. But a new protagonist is now coming on the scene in force: Snapchat. Also known as the ephemeral social network, it is a mobile App that allows users to send pictures or short videos together with messages and make them visible for a short period of time, at which point they disappear. It has established itself as the great example of what is known as temporary social media, which MIT already presented in 2013 as a trend to recover some privacy. One of the features of our digital identity compared with our analogue identity is the persistence of the information.
