The social media of the Web can be understood as tools for the personal and social management of knowledge. In this framework, the creative exchange provides an active interface which transforms the empirical and local stocks of knowledge into explicit and globally shared knowledge. In a further step, it allows to transport the memory, once being made explicit, into personal and practically applicable knowledge. This paper presents the vision of a new symbolic medium which would increase the efficiency of creative online-exchange.

This paper discusses the possible changes that software engineering will have to go through in response to the challenges and issues associated with social media. Indeed, people have never been so connected like nowadays by forming spontaneous relations with others (even strangers) and engaging in ad-hoc interactions. The Web is the backbone of this new social era – an open, global, ubiquitous, and pervasive platform for today's society and world - suggesting that “everything” can socialize or be socialized. This paper also analyzes the evolution of software engineering as a discipline, points out the characteristics of social systems, and finally presents how these characteristics could affect software engineering's models and practices. It is expected that social systems' characteristics will make software engineering evolve one more time to tackle and address the social era's challenges and issues, respectively.

<p>From its birth to the nowadays lifestyle, web has strongly changed. Although once it was a “place’’ to find information, now it represents that virtual condition, in which it can be possible to share and collect information, thoughts, desires and doing shopping and so on and so forth.</p><p>Today, the company does not only make just a commercial communication. Instead, there exist many types of interaction: the internal communication, for instance. Enterprise 2.0 is that kind of business that uses the instruments of the web 2.0 both for external and internal communication. It means to use all the digital marketing tools to manage the entire organization, such that we have to think in a participatory management way. Indeed, we have to focus ourselves even more on a participatory organization, where the development of new projects derives from the ones who work into the company. The Social media that can be involved in this field are the same that are used for a commercial communication: social network, blogs, Wikipedia, podcasts, rss feed and so on and so forth.</p><p>Even though there are very few Italian companies that apply the tools of web 2.0 to manage the entire organization, the paradigm of the enterprise 2.0 is slowly taking off.</p><p>The purpose of this work paper is to identify how the company can efficiently adopt the digital marketing instruments, utilizing the participatory management: enterprise 2.0. The adoption of these participatory tools is fundamental, because only through their adoption, it can be possible to reach a vast audience and to satisfy the digital consumer needs, who is no more passive, but he is even more active and critic about the choices he is going to make.</p>

ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to hence the quest for an understanding of the theoretical and empirical foundations of studies of social media within Dentistry Science. In particular, it has been sought to identify the temporal and thematic behaviors of studies concerning social media in Dentistry. Methods It involves an exploratory study of the bibliometrics and scientometrics, using a quali-quantitative approach. The universe is made up of the scientific production concerning the social media contained in articles related to the area, indexed in the Web of Science. In order to understand the objects of the studies identified, content analysis was employed. Results The results enabled us to map the profile of the temporal and thematic behavior of the studies developed, localizing the period of publication, areas of knowledge with production that is related to Dentistry Science and the issues occurring most frequently. Conclusion Given the complexity of the topic, a more profound epistemological and pragmatic approach is envisioned for future production.

This chapter assesses big data. Within the social sciences, big data could refer to an emerging field of research that brings together academics from a variety of disciplines using and developing tools to widen perspective, to utilize latent data sets, as well as for the generation of new data. Another way to define big data in the social sciences refers to data corresponding to at least one of the three s of big data: volume, variety, or velocity.. These characteristics are widely used by researchers attempting to define and distinguish new types of data from conventional ones. However, there are a number of ethical and consent issues with big data analytics. For example, many studies across the social sciences utilize big data from the web, from social media, online communities, and the darknet, where there is a question as to whether users provided consent to the reuse of their posts, profiles, or other data shared when they signed up, knowing their profiles and information would be public. This has led to a number of issues regarding algorithms making decisions that cannot be explained. The chapter then considers the opportunities and pitfalls that come along with big data.

The social media in Nigeria provides an avenue where cultural practices are produced and consumed. One of such practices is joking. Specifically, a genre of jokes found in Nigeria social media space is Akpos jokes. The goal of this chapter is to explore the contextual beliefs in Akpos jokes and the pragmatic strategies employed by the writers of Akpos jokes. Akpos jokes are narratives about an imaginary character named Akpos. The study benefited from contextual belief theory (Odebunmi, 2006) while the data comprised jokes randomly picked from a blog and Facebook pages where Akpos jokes are published. The study revealed that the writer(s) of the Akpos jokes manipulate contextual beliefs like shared knowledge of language and shared knowledge of situations and events in Nigeria in order to generate humour. The writers also employ Implicature and stereotyping of the character of Akpos for humorous effects.
