Twitter, Myspace and Facebook Demystified - by Ted Janusz
Twitter, MySpace and Facebook Demystified - by Ted Janusz Q: I hear people talking about Web sites like Twitter, MySpace and Facebook. What are they? And, even more importantly, should I be using them to promote oral implantology? First, you are not alone. A recent survey showed that 70 percent of American adults did not know enough about Twitter to even have an opinion. Tools like Twitter, Facebook and MySpace are components of something else you may have heard people talking about: Web 2.0 , a popular term for Internet applications in which the users are actively engaged in creating and distributing Web content. Web 1.0 probably consisted of the Web sites you saw back in the late 90s, which were nothing more than fancy electronic brochures. Web 1.5 would have been something like Amazon or eBay, sites on which one could buy, sell and leave reviews. What Web 3.0 will look like is anybody's guess! Let's look specifically at the three applications that you mentioned. Tweet, Tweet Twitter - "Twitter is like text messaging, only you can also do it from the Web," says Dan Tynan, the author of the Tynan on Technology blog. "Instead of sending a message to just one person, you can send it to thousands of people at once. You can choose to follow anyone's update (called "tweets") simply by clicking the Follow button on their profile, or vice-versa. The only rule is that each tweet can be no longer than 140 characters." Former CEO of Twitter Jack Dorsey once accepted an award for Twitter by saying, "We'd like to thank you in 140 characters or less.

GOOGLE+ PRO TIPS Google+ Allows You to Connect with Your Audience in a Plethora of New Ways
GOOGLE+ PRO TIPS Google+ allows you to connect with your audience in a plethora of new ways. It combines features from some of the more popular platforms into one — supporting GIFs like Tumblr and, before Facebook jumped on board, supporting hashtags like Twitter — but Google+ truly shines with Hangouts and Events. As part of our Google Apps for Education agreement, NYU students can easily opt-in to Google+ using their NYU emails, creating a huge potential audience. KEEP YOUR POSTS TIDY While there isn’t a 140-character limit, keep posts brief, sharp, and to the point. Having more space than Twitter doesn’t mean you should post multiple paragraphs; use Twitter’s character limit as a good rule of thumb for how much your followers are used to consuming at a glance. When we have a lot to say, we create a Tumblr post, then share a link to it on Google+. REMOVE LINKS AFTER LINK PREVIEW Sharing a link on Google+ automatically creates a visually appealing link preview, which means you don’t need to keep the link in your text. There may be times when you don’t want a link preview, in which case you can remove the preview but keep the link. Whichever you prefer, don’t keep both. We keep link previews because they are more interactive than a simple text link. OTHER RESOURCES Google+ Training Video USE HASHTAgs — but be sTRATEGIC BY GROVO Hashtags can put you into already-existing conversations and make your Learn More BY GOOGLE posts easier to find by people following specific tags, such as incoming How Google+ Works freshmen following — or constantly searching — the #NYU tag.

Effectiveness of Dismantling Strategies on Moderated Vs. Unmoderated
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Efectiveness of dismantling strategies on moderated vs. unmoderated online social platforms Oriol Artime1*, Valeria d’Andrea1, Riccardo Gallotti1, Pier Luigi Sacco2,3,4 & Manlio De Domenico 1 Online social networks are the perfect test bed to better understand large-scale human behavior in interacting contexts. Although they are broadly used and studied, little is known about how their terms of service and posting rules afect the way users interact and information spreads. Acknowledging the relation between network connectivity and functionality, we compare the robustness of two diferent online social platforms, Twitter and Gab, with respect to banning, or dismantling, strategies based on the recursive censor of users characterized by social prominence (degree) or intensity of infammatory content (sentiment). We fnd that the moderated (Twitter) vs. unmoderated (Gab) character of the network is not a discriminating factor for intervention efectiveness. We fnd, however, that more complex strategies based upon the combination of topological and content features may be efective for network dismantling. Our results provide useful indications to design better strategies for countervailing the production and dissemination of anti- social content in online social platforms. Online social networks provide a rich laboratory for the analysis of large-scale social interaction and of their social efects1–4. Tey facilitate the inclusive engagement of new actors by removing most barriers to participate in content-sharing platforms characteristic of the pre-digital era5. For this reason, they can be regarded as a social arena for public debate and opinion formation, with potentially positive efects on individual and collective empowerment6.

Instafame: Luxury Selfies in the Attention Economy
Public Culture Instafame: Luxury Selfies in the Attention Economy Alice E. Marwick Empire on top, my Instagram — my watch Five days on my yacht Cash money act up I just Instagram my shit and let them broke haters just watch —Fat Joe, “Instagram That Hoe” Instagram, the mobile photo- sharing application, was pur- chased for $1 billion by Facebook in 2012; it had, at the time, thirteen employees. While a $1 billion valuation is difficult to grasp — that’s more than the New York Times is worth — the purchase is now widely viewed by tech and business analysts as a coup (Indvik 2013). Facebook’s popularity with young, lucrative American consumers has waned as it has grown into an aggregated behemoth of online content, its News Feeds clogged with video game scores, e- commerce purchases, and advertising (Hess 2013). Instagram, despite having far fewer users, is thriv- ing. The site’s top users are a who’s who of pop stars and television celebrities. It is used by 11 percent of American teenagers, was parodied by the popular site CollegeHumor, and is regularly name- checked in hip- hop songs (Madden et al. 2013). With Instagram’s user base of 150 million people comes the possibility of achieving Instafame, the condition of having a relatively great number of follow- ers on the app. While the most followed users are primarily celebrities — the pop star Rihanna, for instance, has 11 million followers — to many Instagram users, gathering thousands, or even hundreds, of followers can be a motivating force. One participant in a Pew Research Center Internet study on online bullying said: Public Culture 27:1 doi 10.1215/08992363-2798379 Copyright 2015 by Duke University Press 137 Published by Duke University Press Public Culture Public Culture “[On Instagram,] people tend to not come off so mean.

A Little Birdie Told Me About Agriculture: Best Practices and Future Uses of Twitter in Agriculutral Communications Abstract Social media sites, such as Twitter, are impacting the ways businesses, organizations, and individuals use technology to connect with their audiences. Twitter enables users to connect with others through 140-character messages called “tweets” that answer the question, “What’s happening?” Twitter use has increased exponentially to more than five million active users but has a dropout rate of more than 50%. Numerous agricultural organizations have embraced the use of Twitter to promote their products and agriculture as a whole and to interact with audiences in a new way.

Marketing and Communications for Artists Boost Your Social Media Presence
MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS FOR ARTISTS BOOST YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE QUESTIONS FOR KIANGA ELLIS: INTERNET & SOCIAL MEDIA In 2012, social media remains an evolving terrain in which artists and organizations must determine which platforms, levels of participation, and tracking methods are most effective and sustainable for their own needs. To inform this process, LMCC invited six artists and arts professionals effectively using social media to share their approaches, successes, and lessons learned. LOWER MANHATTAN CULTURAL COUNCIL (LMCC): Briefly describe your work as an artist and any other roles or affiliations you have as an arts professional. KIANGA ELLIS (KE): Following a legal career on Wall Street in derivatives and commodities sales and trading, I have spent the past few years as a consultant and producer of art projects. My expertise is in patron and audience development, business strategy and communications, with a special focus on social media and Internet marketing. I have worked with internationally recognized institutions such as The Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Sotheby’s, SITE Santa Fe, and numerous galleries and international art fairs. I am a published author and invited speaker on the topic of how the Internet is changing the business of art. In 2011, after several months meeting with artists in their studios and recording videos of our conversations, I began exhibiting and selling the work of emerging and international artists through Kianga Ellis Projects, an exhibition program that hosts conversations about the studio practice and work of invited contemporary artists. I launched the project in Santa Fe, New Mexico ⎯Kianga Ellis Projects is now located in an artist loft building in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
