Following his study, he argues that a focus on platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram does little to explain what we post on social media. Instead, the key to understanding how people in an English village use social media is to appreciate just how 'English' their usage has become. He introduces the 'Goldilocks Strategy': how villagers use social media to calibrate precise levels of interaction ensuring that each relationship is neither too cold nor too hot, but 'just right'. 410 0$aWhy we post. 606 $aSociology and anthropology$2bicssc 606 $aSociety and social sciences Society and social sciences$2bicssc 606 $aSocial and cultural anthropology, ethnography Mod Social and cultural anthropology, ethnography$2bicssc 606 $aAnthropology$2bicssc 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aEthnology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aSociology and anthropology. 615 7$aSociety and social sciences Society and social sciences. 615 7$aSocial and cultural anthropology, ethnography Mod Social and cultural anthropology, ethnography. 615 7$aAnthropology. 615 0$aSocial sciences 615 0$aEthnology. 676 $a302.231 700 $aMiller$b Daniel$4aut$0118348 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910251557403321 996 $aSocial Media in an English Village$92290515 997 $aUNINA
