      abstract = {"Social media penetrate our lives: Facebook, YouTube,  Twitter and many other platforms define daily habits of  communication and creative production. This book studies  the rise of social media, providing both a historical and a  critical analysis of the emergence of major platforms in  the context of a rapidly changing ecosystem of connective  media. Author José van Dijck offers an analytical prism  that can be used to view techno-cultural as well as  socio-economic aspects of this transformation as well as to  examine shared ideological principles between major social  media platforms. This fascinating study will appeal to all  readers interested in social media."--Publisher's website.},
