Mapping and measuring neighbourhood social media groups. The case of facebook
Social media is a pervasive part of everyday life. Neighbourhood social media are important community orientated structures that serve as digital platforms where local residents can connect with neighbours, exchange information, and share resources. The current study details an analytic framework to systematically capture, measure and map neighbourhood social media (Facebook groups) presence for a large metropolitan region, Brisbane, Australia. Further through modelling we reveal how socially organised communities acquire a higher number of neighbourhood-based social media groups while socially disorganised communities tend to have social media groups associated with crime or crime watch. We also unveil important spatial patterns with more neighbourhood-based social media groups located in coastal areas that are associated with tourism, leisure activities and recreational pursuits. Our findings demonstrate that neighbourhood-based social media is an important component of community social infrastructure and can support collective capacity to respond to problems. Our hope is that our approach can be replicated in other situational and cultural contexts to assemble a growing set of comparative studies through which the spatial distribution of locality-based social media can be assessed.
期刊介绍:
Applied Geography is a journal devoted to the publication of research which utilizes geographic approaches (human, physical, nature-society and GIScience) to resolve human problems that have a spatial dimension. These problems may be related to the assessment, management and allocation of the world physical and/or human resources. The underlying rationale of the journal is that only through a clear understanding of the relevant societal, physical, and coupled natural-humans systems can we resolve such problems. Papers are invited on any theme involving the application of geographical theory and methodology in the resolution of human problems.
