"Recently Facebook officially ended its Pages API and has 'replaced' it with the Social Science One project which curates data sets for researchers. Studying engagement on Russian disinformation pages, or on those of the Alt Right, have become improbable because post engagement measures are no longer available. Instagram shut down its API years ago, so projects such as Selfie City no longer can be undertaken, unless one scrapes data. Twitter has disabled certain data fields such as tweet time zone, thereby making it unlikely to continue to map the Australian Twittersphere, to take just one example. There is an API graveyard, and those discontinued services were once the starting point of both social research as well as social media critique. There is a great deal of missing data as well, because the aforementioned Russian disinformation pages and many others have been removed. "

"I'm at a conference" Starter Pack

- blurry pictures of slides
- misspelled speakers' quotes
- wrong conference hashtag
- loads of retweets
- many hearts
- inside jokes
- complaining about slow wifi
- "it was great meeting you" and tagging everyone

am I the only one who finds the absence of spaces between em-dashes and words disturbing? e.g. —this is hurtful—

"senta, mi fa pagare con carta?"
"eh guardi vorrei ma non POS."

En–glish hy–phen–ation doesn\'t make any sense

"the success of all media depends at some level on inattention or 'blindness' to the media technologies themselves (and all of their supporting protocols) in favor of attention to the phenomena, 'the content,' that they represent for users' edification of enjoyment." Lisa Gitelman, 2006
