The study takes a cross-platform approach, analysing three social media platforms of different genres - Badoo, Couchsurfing and Facebook - and exploring two interactive forces that shape the way people communicate through social media: the platforms' architecture and policies, and actual practises of use. Combining analysis of the political economy of social media with users' perspectives of their own practises - as well as exploring the tensions between the two - the book provides a detailed picture of intimacy as a complex structure of continuity and change.Social mediaTechnologySociological aspectsCommunicationSocial MediaScience, Technology and SocietyMedia and CommunicationSocial media.TechnologySociological aspects.Communication.Social Media.Science, Technology and Society.Media and Communication.302302.231Miguel Cristinaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut963802BOOK9910300012403321Personal Relationships and Intimacy in the Age of Social Media2185727UNINA
