Trend shows what people which is called “Tweets”. Tweets are limited by are talking about and their opinion about 140 character in length and it can be viewed by particular topic. user’s follower. Twitter has two features: Trend show the list of the topics which are immediately popular rather than topics which . The shortness of tweets, which cannot go have been popular on daily basis.

Social Media Events Abstract Audiences are at the heart of every media event. They provide legitimation, revenue and content and yet, very few studies systematically engage with their roles from a communication perspective. This dissertation strives to fill precisely this gap in knowledge by asking how do social media audiences participate in global events? What factors motivate and shape their participation? What cultural differences emerge in content creation and how can we use the perspectives of global audiences to better understand media events and vice versa? To answer these questions, this dissertation takes a social-constructivist perspective and a multiple-method case study approach rooted in discourse analysis. It explores the ways in which global audiences are imagined and invited to participate in media events. Furthermore, it investigates how and why audiences actually make use of that invitation via an analytical framework I elaborate called architectures of participation (O’Reilly, 2004). This dissertation inverts the predominant top-down scholarly gaze upon media events – a genre of perpetual social importance – to present a much needed bottom-up intervention in media events literature. It also provides a more nuanced understanding of what it means to be a member of ‘the audience’ in a social media age, and further advances Dayan and Katz’ (1992) foundational media events theory.

  • Online Hate Network Spreads Malicious COVID-19 Content
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Online hate network spreads malicious COVID‑19 content outside the control of individual social media platforms N. Velásquez1,2, R. Leahy1,2, N. Johnson Restrepo1,2, Y. Lupu2,4, R. Sear5, N. Gabriel3, O. K. Jha3, B. Goldberg6 & N. F. Johnson1,2,3* We show that malicious COVID‑19 content, including racism, disinformation, and misinformation, exploits the multiverse of online hate to spread quickly beyond the control of any individual social media platform. We provide a frst mapping of the online hate network across six major social media platforms. We demonstrate how malicious content can travel across this network in ways that subvert platform moderation eforts. Machine learning topic analysis shows quantitatively how online hate communities are sharpening COVID‑19 as a weapon, with topics evolving rapidly and content becoming increasingly coherent. Based on mathematical modeling, we provide predictions of how changes to content moderation policies can slow the spread of malicious content. In addition to its health and economic efects, the COVID-19 pandemic is playing out across the world’s online platforms1–4. While limiting the spread of infection through social distancing, isolation has led to a surge in social media use and heightened individuals’ exposure to increasingly virulent online misinformation. Users share misinformation about prevention and treatment, making it difcult for individuals to tell science from fction. As individuals react emotionally in their online posts to the growing death toll and economic peril 5, online extremists are rebranding their conspiracy theories around current events to draw in new followers 6. Tis growth in hateful online activity may have contributed to recent attacks against vulnerable communities and government crisis responders7–9.

  • Detection and Analysis of Twitter Trending Topics Via Link- Anomaly Detection

Journal of Engineering Research and Applications www.ijera.com ISSN : 2248-9622, Vol. 5, Issue 4, ( Part -6) April 2015, pp.10-12 RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS Detection and Analysis of Twitter Trending Topics via Link- Anomaly Detection Chandan M G*, Chandra Naik** *(PG Scholar, Department of Computer Science Engineering, NMAMIT, Nitte, Udupi-574 110, India) ** (Department of Computer Science Engineering, NMAMIT, Nitte, Udupi-574 110, India) ABSTRACT This paper involves two approaches for finding the trending topics in social networks that is key-based approach and link-based approach. In conventional key-based approach for topics detection have mainly focus on frequencies of (textual) words. We propose a link-based approach which focuses on posts reflected in the mentioning behavior of hundreds users. The anomaly detection in the twitter data set is carried out by retrieving the trend topics from the twitter in a sequential manner by using some API and corresponding user for training, then computed anomaly score is aggregated from different users. Further the aggregated anomaly score will be feed into change-point analysis or burst detection at the pinpoint, in order to detect the emerging topics. We have used the real time twitter account, so results are vary according to the tweet trends made. The experiment shows that proposed link-based approach performs even better than the keyword-based approach. Keywords - anomaly-detection, social network, change-point analysis, burst detection. I.

  • Insights Into Social Media Strategies by Small Marine Tourism Operators in Auckland
    Insights into Social Media Strategies by Small Marine Tourism Operators in Auckland by Mohamed Shenaan A thesis submitted to the Auckland University of Technology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of International Tourism Management 2017 School of Hospitality and Tourism Abstract The development of Social Media from its infancy towards the end of the 20th century, to its mass proliferation in recent years has been rapid. Its function as a communication, marketing and distribution tool has influenced the consumer decision making process, especially for intangible, information intensive service industries, such as tourism. As a result of the low start-up costs and its ease of use, Social Media has facilitated new marketing channels for smaller businesses. The aim of this explorative study is to gain an insight into the usage, perception and barriers of using Social Media as a tool by small marine tourism operators in Auckland, New Zealand; to offer recommendations to improve the use of the tool by these businesses; and to add to existing scholarly knowledge in the area. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data from twelve marine operators based in Auckland. The exploration of this data was carried out by using a thematic analysis approach. Results indicated that the most popular and most frequently used Social Media channels were the social network Facebook, and the recommendation and review website TripAdvisor. Findings suggest that Social Media use by participants lacked clear goals and strategies, mainly due to barriers such as lack of resources, lack of time, lack of knowledge, and due to, in a minority of cases, prioritisation of lifestyle choice over business growth.

Ein wahrer „Hype“ lässt sich erkennen, der teilweise Parallelen zu dem Medien-Hype rund um das Metaversum „Second Life“ im Jahr 2007 erkennen lässt. Genau wie viele Bürger mit einer Anmeldung bei Twitter liebäugeln, wird auch in vielen Unternehmen diskutiert, inwiefern ein Einsatz von Twitter im Rahmen der Unternehmenskommunikation Sinn machen kann.
