Social media and the like
My draft thesis copy is pretty drafty. (The introduction and literature review had almost a complete rework. Ditto the parts explaining a methodology.)  My approach to doing social media is different than most other research done because I focus on follower and audience metrics, which is not the norm for how this research is done. You can reference it if you want, but there are much more relevant types of work being done by respected academics like Henry Jenkins and the academic I cited in the AfD whose name is escaping me. There are plenty of academics working in this area. This highlights one area. Most communication departments have a fair amount of focus on it. This shows social media is an area of research. This is a professor who researches it. For me, the issue of academics doing work in it is just so... obvious if you look that it is hard to explain where to look. I mean, class at Northwestern. But yeah, blah blah tl;dr version: Feel free to cite but better sources exist. --LauraHale (talk) 22:09, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
