      Most Twitter users are lurkers... what do you all think about that?
  • A new Pew Research Center study goes a step further. First, we asked survey respondents whether they use Twitter and, if so, for permission to look at their Twitter accounts. After reviewing each account, we quantified these Americans’ tweets, likes, followers and followings. The result is the Center’s first study of Twitter behavior that’s based on a representative sample of U.S. adults who use the platform.

    I can definitely see most Twitter users being lurkers. I lurk on Instagram quite a bit, but I have become more active in liking posts since taking this class!

    I am also an Instagram lurker. I was curious and looked at my three most recent posts... June 2, May 9, and March 2! Very little production happening.

Facebook: Lurking, Liking and Life Satisfaction | Psychology Today - 2 views

  •  
    Research shared by Dr. Karen E. Dill-Shackelford that says: "It turns out that such lurkers should beware. A new study says that while Facebook activity may be a sort of combination of fun and boredom for many, it predicts problems for the lurkers. We may need to look out for Facebook envy in ourselves. In a study of emotional experience on Facebook (4), researchers in Germany discovered that a lot of frustration people experience on the site comes from envy. And that envy is much more likely to happen to lurkers than to those who actively participate on Facebook. "
