Il lavoro di Jean Burgess approfondisce i regni del video online e della cultura partecipativa. Esamina criticamente come le tecnologie e le piattaforme digitali si intrecciano nel tessuto del nostro panorama culturale. La ricerca di Burgess seziona i modi in cui questi strumenti modellano la creazione di contenuti e il coinvolgimento del pubblico. Le sue intuizioni offrono una comprensione più profonda delle dinamiche in evoluzione tra media e società.
"Twitter's growth over the past decade, like that of much social media, has far surpassed its creators' vision. Twitter charts this trajectory in the format of a platform biography: a new, streamlined approach to understanding how platforms change over time. Through the often surprising, fast-moving story of Twitter, it illuminates the multiple forces -- from politics and business to digital ideologies -- that came together to shape the evolution of this revolutionary platform. Jean Burgess and Nancy K. Baym build a rich narrative of how Twitter has evolved as a technology, a company, and a culture, from its origins as a personal messaging service to its transformation into one of the most globally influential social media platforms, where history and culture are not only recorded but written in real time." -- Back cover
