Abstract:

With the development of free and easy-to-use software programs, blogging has helped turn Web consumers into Web content providers. Blogging provides distinctive insight into comprehending e-consumer behavior explicitly with respect to social networking and information searching behaviors while facilitating a state of flow. The objectives of this study are to identify determinant dimensions of blogging motivations and flow, and to investigate the hypothesized relationships of the motivational blogging behavior. Analyzing data (n = 432) from a southwestern university, results reveal the critica

Abstract:

Blogs, one of the latest emerging tools for communication, are gaining widespread popularity and becoming increasingly common. More and more people blog and use blogs as a way to share information about themselves with other participants or viewers. By doing so, they create their so-called 'virtual self. 810g was chosen to be the main theme of this study not only because of its increase in user number but also its uniqueness that differentiates it from other types of online communication.

Abstract:

This thesis aims to conceptualize the growing use of the blog as socio-political practice in an emerging Chinese public sphere. It is built on the study of three key blogs that, for different reasons, are held to be important in the recent history of blogging in China: a sexual blog (Muzi Mei's Love Letters Left, 2003), a journalist's blog (Lian Yue's Lian Yue's Eighth Continent, 2007), and a satirical blog (Wang Xiaofeng's No Guess, 2006-2011). I say they are important because the three blogs support my central argument of this thesis: blogging can be seen as a new form of political expressio

Abstract:

Der Beitrag untersucht die Weblog-Arbeit Studierender zur Dokumentation und Reflexion von Praxisprojekten. Zu Beginn und nach Abschluss einer Lehrveranstaltung mit Praxisphase wurden Studierende zur Weblog-Arbeit befragt. Es zeigt sich, dass die Studierenden kaum über Erfahrungen in der Nutzung von Weblogs verfügen und überwiegend negative Einstellungen zum Bloggen aufweisen. Die Blogeinträge erreichen nicht die angestrebte Reflexionstiefe. Es wird diskutiert, wie das didaktische Design gestaltet werden kann, um die gewünschten Effekte ‒ Peer-Feedback und tiefgehende Reflexion ‒ zu erreichen.

This phenomenological study examines the motivations and experiences of librarians who author professionally-focused Weblogs. I constructed a model of librarianship based on Wilson and Buckland.

A Web survey generated 239 responses to demographic and open-ended questions. Using the results of the survey, I analyzed demographic data and performed a phenomenological analysis of the open-ended questions. A list of category responses was gene

Abstract:

Sentiment Analysis (SA) concerns the automatic extraction and classification of sentiments conveyed in a given text, i.e. labelling a text instance as positive, negative or neutral. SA research has attracted increasing interest in the past few years due to its numerous real-world applications. The recent interest in SA is also fuelled by the growing popularity of social media platforms (e.g. Twitter), as they provide large amounts of freely available and highly subjective content that can be readily crawled. Most previous SA work has focused on English with considerable success. In this work,

In this thesis we provide a framework for a micro-blogging social network in an unstructured peer-to-peer network. At a user level, a micro-blogging service provides (i) a means for publishing a micro-blog, (ii) a means to follow a micro-blogger, and (iii) a means to search for micro-blogs containing keywords. Since unstructured peer-to-peer networks do not bind either the data or the location of data to the nodes in the network, search in an unstructured network is necessarily probabilistic.

Knowing how organizations engage employees can help researchers and practitioners better understand how to effectively communicate and engage employees to create an efficient and collaborative work environment.

Abstract:

Anorexic individuals have long been creating their own support communities to cope with the psychological distress of living with an eating disorder. This behavior has transferred to online platforms such as Tumblr. In these digital spaces exists pro-anorexia blogging, a fluid group of users who post about their experiences living with anorexia while interacting with other bloggers to access information that appears to be supportive of anorexic behaviors. Pro-ana bloggers form not only a community, but an information community that is targeted by heavy forms of stigmatization. Due to ext

Abstract:

In recent years, the salience of obesity and body image in society has given rise to a "fat activist" movement dedicated to defending non-normative body types. This activism has extended to the online environment, in which groups who are ostracized from the traditional realm have taken to blogging as a form of resistance and expression. The term "fat" has been reclaimed by the movement as a term of emancipation and defiance. The so-called "fatshion" blogs have a growing audience, and there is a burgeoning scholarly literature on this phenomenon. The aim of this research was to investigate coll

Abstract:

A mobile group blog is an example of a Web 2.0 social space, as well as a tool for the instant collection of contextual information, the immediate sharing of information and later reflection. Records in the form of multimedia created through mobile blogging can assist people to keep a versatile representation of artefacts they encounter on the move in everyday life. Overseas students are an example of a large group of people whose cultural learning could be supported by this technology. They could share contextual information and their own stories with other people currently experiencing the h
