Yet, technology insider Alice Marwick contends in this insightful book, "Web 2.0" only encouraged a preoccupation with status and attention. Her original research-which includes conversations with entrepreneurs, Internet celebrities, and Silicon Valley journalists-explores the culture and ideology of San Francisco's tech community in the period between the dot com boom and the App store, when the city was the world's center of social media development. Marwick argues that early revolutionary goals have failed to materialize: while many continue to view social media as democratic, these technologies instead turn users into marketers and self-promoters, and leave technology companies poised to violate privacy and to prioritize profits over participation. Marwick analyzes status-building techniques-such as self-branding, micro-celebrity, and life-streaming-to show that Web 2.0 did not provide a cultural revolution, but only furthered inequality and reinforced traditional social stratification, demarcated by race, class, and gender. 606 $aWeb 2.0 606 $aSocial media 606 $aSocial status 606 $aCelebrities 606 $aPublicity 606 $aBranding (Marketing) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWeb 2.0. 615 0$aSocial media. 615 0$aSocial status. 615 0$aCelebrities. 615 0$aPublicity. 615 0$aBranding (Marketing) 676 $a305.5/2 700 $aMarwick$b Alice Emily$01056891 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464184103321 996 $aStatus update$92491581 997 $aUNINA
