Where can I find social media research articles?

Question

Social media

Scientific work requires up-to-date information on social networks. I can not find where to push off in the study of literature. Maybe someone knows some work that is worth reading about this? Ideally, if someone knows the names of people dealing with such problems, or some resources dedicated to this issue.

Answer 1

There are several courses on this topic from Pennsylvania, Princeton and Michigan Universities:
www.coursera.org/course/networks
www.coursera.org/course/sna
www.coursera.org/course/friendsmoneybytes

Answer 2

Well, if you consider the blogosphere as a social network in an unusual format, then I would recommend looking at this study .

Answer 3

Did you look at dissertations? It's sometimes very funny when a 2000 thesis predicts the rise of social media.
If you need an economic component of social networks - write in a personal message, if a technical or social component is no longer for me ...

Answer 4

More specifically, what data do you need?

Answer 5

Maybe not as deep as you wanted, but there is something in it.
