Social network statistics
Social network and Arab spring
"Our evidence suggests that social media carried a cascade of messages about
freedom and democracy across North Africa and the
Middle East, and helped raise expectations for the
success of political uprising,”
says Philip Howard, an associate professor in communication at the University of Washington
Social network and Arab spring
The “Arab Spring” in Tunisia, Egypt and elsewhere in the Mid-East heavily relied on the Internet, social media and technologies like Twitter, TwitPic, Facebook and YouTube in the early stages to accelerate the social protest. There is less evidence that social media played as strong a role in places like Yemen (where Internet penetration is low or Libya where the government cracked down on the Internet more effectively.
Social network and Arab spring
Because networking in online social communities is still a relatively young online trend, whether or not social networking is harmful is still unknown. Like any other type of networking or social club with which individuals become involved, it is a good idea to do your homework and make sure that you know what you are getting into. Understand the terms of use, the rules and regulations, and be clear on issues like security and privacy.
