- 3. Quick definition of social media? Social media are media for social interaction, using highly accessible and scalable publishing techniques. Social media uses web based technologies to turn communication into interactive dialogues. Andreas Kaplan and MichealHaenlein 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. Businesses also refer to social media as consumer-generated media. 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.

Notas del editor
- Andreas and Micheal – Wrote a paper “users of the world unite! The challenges and opportunities of social media”Web 2.0 – is about user participation – i.e. user contributionAttention Age is a spin off of the Information age – As intnet/knowlwedge grows ‘attention’ becomes a commodity that can be monetised.
- Attributed to Flowtown for the info graphicGenderFacebook, Twitter and particularly Myspace exhibit a gender bias to women. (are women more social?). Linkedin doesn’t exhibt this biasAge distribution: Myspace for kids, Linkedin for Working population. Facebook and Twitter slightly more balanced though Facebook appeals more to a younger generationEducations:Myspace - lower education bias reflecting user baseLinkedin – Bias towards higher education (reflecting intended audience)Facebook & twitter more balanced though twitter leans towards higher education levels (by dint of usage profile)Income: Reflective of education level and age distribution.Conclusion: different networks are ‘right’ for different people and purposes.
