Citizens are listening and participating in social media
• Leveraging social media for sustaining civil society
• Finding government services
• Citizen interactions
• Measuring public opinion
• Identifying influential opinions
• Summarizing topics of interest
• Evaluating your efforts to engage in social media

Collective Action Dilemma Theory
• Central tenet– Individual rationality leads to collective disaster
• Phenomena of interest– Provision and/or sustainable consumption of collective
resources– Public Goods, Common Property, "Free Rider” Problems,
Tragedies– Signaling intent
• Methods– Surveys, interviews, participant observation, log file analysis,
computer modeling

SNA 101• Node
– “actor” on which relationships act; 1-mode versus 2-mode networks• Edge
– Relationship connecting nodes; can be directional• Cohesive Sub-Group
– Well-connected group; clique; cluster• Key Metrics
– Centrality (group or individual measure)• Number of direct connections that individuals have with others in the group (usually look at
incoming connections only)• Measure at the individual node or group level
– Cohesion (group measure)• Ease with which a network can connect• Aggregate measure of shortest path between each node pair at network level reflects
average distance– Density (group measure)
• Robustness of the network• Number of connections that exist in the group out of 100% possible
– Betweenness (individual measure)• # shortest paths between each node pair that a node is on• Measure at the individual node level
• Node roles– Peripheral – below average centrality– Central connector – above average centrality– Broker – above average betweenness

• Central tenet – Social structure emerges from – the aggregate of relationships (ties) – among members of a population
• Phenomena of interest– Emergence of cliques and clusters – from patterns of relationships– Centrality (core), periphery (isolates), – betweenness
• Methods– Surveys, interviews, observations,
log file analysis, computational analysis of matrices

Are you my friend?
yes no
I like you I really like youI kind of like you
I feel socially obligated to link to youI know you
I wish I knew you I like your picture You are cool
I was paid to link to you I want your reflected glory
Everybody else links to you I’d vote for you

E-mail Communication – Organization Units
• Email from the TechABC’s organizational unit network “backbone”, focusing on high-traffic connections between units > 50 messages per FTE.
• Color is mapped to Betweenness Centrality
• Green vertices play important roles as bridge spanners.
• Excluded nodes with low Closeness Centrality to filter out vertices that are not part of the large component.

Bernie Hogan is a Research Fellow at the Oxford Internet Institute at the University of Oxford. Bernie's work focuses on the process of networking, or maintaining connections with other people. His dissertation focused on the use of multiple media for networking while his current research on Facebook looks at the complexities of networking with multiple groups on a single site.

A starting list for high priority tasks on basic networks includes:
T1) count number of nodes and links T2) for every node, count degree T3) for every node, find the nodes that are distance 1, 2, 3 …away T4) for every node, find betweenness centrality T5) for every node, find structural prestige T6) find diameter of the network T7) identify strongly connected or compact clusters T8) for a given pair of nodes, find shortest path between themWhen moving up to C2 and C3, where labels are allowed, additional tasks might be: T9) for every node/link, read the label T10) find all nodes/links with a given label/attribute

Explicit vs. implicit “reputation systems”
ExplicitStatements about behaviors and relationships
• eBay• Amazon• Slashdot• Digg• MySpace• Facebook• YouTube• flickr
Issues:• Provisioning: not enough rating• Latency: ratings not fast enough• Bias: susceptible to initial reactions• Collusion: easily “shilled”• Inflation: disincentives to accuracy
Implicit
Observations about behaviors and relationships
• Google• Amazon• Flickr, MySpace, Facebook• del.icio.us• Technorati• Netscan
Issues:• Ambiguity: Behavior is not
endorsement• Collusion: Subject to manipulation• May be subject to “herding” or
positive-feedback loops

What makes it social?
• Who makes it?• Who consumes it?• Who owns it?/Who profits from it?• Who or what makes it successful?• How to harness the swarm?• How to map and understand its dynamics?
– How do people and group vary?– Who links to whom?
• What is next for social media?

Interactionist Sociology
• Central tenet– Focus on the active effort of
accomplishing interaction• Phenomena of interest
– Presentation of self – Claims to membership– Juggling multiple (conflicting) roles– Frontstage/Backstage – Strategic interaction– Managing one’s own and others’ “face”
• Methods– Ethnography and participant observation
– (Goffman, 1959; Hall, 1990)

"All phones will be smartphones eventually," Sanjay Jha, chief executive of Motorola's mobile phone business said during a recent interview with the Financial Times.
Smartphone sales in the US will climb steadily over the next 18 months and account for just under 50 per cent of total sales by the autumn of next year

Auto-Tweet Your Weight to the WorldBy ERIC A. TAUBIf you’re losing weight, why keep it to yourself? Now the whole world can know, automatically.
With the Wi-Fi Connected Body Scale from Withings, a French company, everyone can know your body weight, lean and fat mass, and your B.M.I., or body mass index. The $159 scale, available from the company’s Web site and Amazon.com, automatically keeps track of up to eight users’ body stats. Step on the scale, and electrical impedance figures out your body fat. It then sends all the information via Wi-Fi to a no-charge Web site, a free iPhone app, Twitter, Google Health and Microsoft HealthVault, among others.
The idea is that by amassing a continual flow of data, you’ll be able to monitor your progress in maintaining, or achieving, a healthy life style.The Wi-Fi Connected Body Scale keeps track of your weight in pounds, kilograms or stones (used in Great Britain., one stone equals 14 pounds). The eight users are distinguished by their weight.
If you don’t want everyone to see the ups and downs of your avoirdupois, you can always create a Twitter account that only you (and your doctor) know about.

Novartis chip to help ensure bitter pills are swallowedBy Andrew Jack in LondonPublished: September 21 2009 23:06
technology that inserts a tiny microchip into each pill swallowed and sends a reminder to patients by text message if they fail to follow their doctors’ prescriptions.
the system – which broadcasts from the “chip in the pill” to a receiver on the shoulder – on 20 patients using Diovan, a drug to lower blood pressure, had boosted “compliance” with prescriptions from 30 per cent to 80 per cent after six months.

WIFE/MOTHER/WORKER/SPYDoes This Pencil Skirt Have an App?http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/24/fashion/24spy.html
“…a new iPhone app called Lose It! Which sounds like a diet, if you ask me. For weeks he’d been keeping a food diary on his phone — all the calories he ate, and all the calories he burned — and it was constantly generating cool little charts and graphs to let him know whether he was meeting his goals.“I’ve lost 12 pounds,” he said.“Get it for me,” I hissed. “Now.”
Lose It! has its own database listing the calories in a few thousand different foods. And if a food was not listed? I could always find it in another iPhone app, the LiveStrong calorie counter, which lists 450,000 foods.
