Description: Revised edition of the author's Twitter, 2013.
Review Quotes:
"Dhiraj Murthy is one of the foremost experts in social media and Twitter as a platform. His new edition of Twitter treats the platform as a firm, as a mode communication, and as a culture of technology use. Important political leaders use it, young people use it, and journalists use it, sometimes to the detriment of public life. Murthy takes us through the contagions and consequences of Twitter use."
--Philip N. Howard, Oxford University and author of Castells and the Media
"Ten years after being introduced, Twitter has become an integral professional and civic tool. Now Dhiraj Murthy brings an updated version of his methodologically innovative and sociologically deep approach to this transformative social media platform."
--Stephen D. Reese, University of Texas at Austin
"A welcome addition to the growing world of Twitter research."
--Temitayo Olofinlua, University of Ibadan
