? Sociale medier 

Her find­er du his­to­ri­er om eller fra de store sociale plat­forme, der har en enorm rolle at spille i kon­tak­ten mellem udgiver/afsender og mod­tager.

Er verden bedre uden Like-tællinger?

Både Face­book og Insta­gram eksper­i­menter­er med at skjule antallet af Likes, og Twit­ter overve­jer at gemme dem bag et tryk, så de ikke er umid­del­bart syn­lige.

Wired sam­ler op på ten­densen:

"Yet the changes have been decried by some of the very users they were meant to aid, who view the met­rics as an essen­tial part of their expe­ri­ence. That’s left plat­forms in the awk­ward posi­tion of detox­ing users from an addic­tion they ini­tial­ly intro­duced to users."

"Edi­tors will wait for two whitelist­ed media outlets—publishers who have qual­i­fied to be list­ed as offi­cial news sources on Facebook—to con­firm a break­ing news sto­ry if the sto­ry is based on an “unsub­stan­ti­at­ed report.” How a report would be defined as “unsub­stan­ti­at­ed” couldn’t be learned."

Skuffende debut for Expressen på Facebook Watch

For Jour­nal­is­ten har jeg anmeldt Expressens pre­miere på deres nye daglige show, 'Bara Nyheter', der skal gøre hos Face­book — der også betaler gildet.

Jour­nal­is­ten:
"Jeg vil ikke sige, at jeg spildte min tid. Der­til er seks min­ut­ter trods alt for lidt til at gøre en forskel. Og måske er seks min­ut­ter netop alt for kort tid til at starte og køre en ordentlig live-send­ing, hvor folk kan nå at se med."

Stor undersøgelse af lokal US-lokaljournalistik på Facebook

Nie­man Lab:
"Using an auto­mat­ed con­tent analy­sis approach we were able to cat­e­go­rize 149,283 of 313,787 sto­ries in the data set. We found that 59 per­cent of the sto­ries we were able to cat­e­go­rize served a crit­i­cal infor­ma­tion need. Emer­gen­cies (28 per­cent) was the most com­mon crit­i­cal infor­ma­tion need served by local news sto­ries in the cat­e­go­rized group. Aside from crit­i­cal infor­ma­tion needs, 31 per­cent of sto­ries cat­e­go­rized cov­ered sports and 9 per­cent were obit­u­ar­ies."

Twitter-algoritme får brugerne til at følge flere

OneZe­ro:
"The aver­age user with Twitter’s algo­rith­mic time­line — now the default — fol­lows 10% to 15% more peo­ple than those who have revert­ed to the old reverse-chrono­log­i­cal time­line, the com­pa­ny told OneZe­rothis week in response to an inquiry. [...]

I noticed in my own expe­ri­ence using Twit­ter that the algo­rithm had grad­u­al­ly changed how I thought about fol­low­ing peo­ple. I used to lim­it my fol­lows to 1,000, and when­ev­er I went over that num­ber, I would go look­ing for peo­ple to unfol­low. Now I fol­low more than 2,000 and don’t give it a sec­ond thought, because I know Twit­ter isn’t going to show me every­thing they tweet."
