Social Computing: Study on the Use and Impact of Online Social Networking
- Share to:
A social networking phenomenon has emerged over the past five years. In that time, social networking sites (SNS) have grown from a niche to a mass online activity, in which tens of millions of internet users are engaged, both in their leisure time, and at work. However, there has been very little research on the socio-economic impact of these sites in the European context. This report presents results of a case study on SNS recently conducted by JRC IPTS, as part of an exploratory research project. The study aims to explore and identify the social and economic implications of SNS in Europe and to suggest policy options and avenues for further research. The main conclusions and observations of the study are presented below.
