Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The Social Media Handbook explores how social media are changing disciplinary understandings of the internet and our everyday lives. In addition to person-to-person social networking services like Facebook and Twitter, this volume considers a broad range of networked information services that support in-depth social interaction, community formation, and collaboration in the Web 2.0 era.

Rather than considering social media in terms of specific technologies, the chapters in this book engage topics across a range of research, techniques, practices, culture and society, and theories. These broader topics--including community, gender, fandom, disability, and journalism--are entryways through which students and faculty can explore ways of thinking about social media and find new paradigms for analysis.
