The Abstract as taken from the report: "In this work the authors (Mor Naaman, Jeffrey Boase, Chih-Hui Lai of the Rutgers University, School of Communication and Information) examine the characteristics of social activity and patterns of communication on Twitter, a prominent example of the emerging class of communication systems [they] call “social awareness streams.” [They] use system data and message content from over 350 Twitter users, applying human coding and quantitative analysis to provide a deeper understanding of the activity of individuals on the Twitter network. In particular, [they] develop a content-based categorization of the type of messages posted by Twitter users, based on which [they] examine users’ activity. [Their] analysis shows two common types of user behavior in terms of the content of the posted messages, and exposes differences between users in respect to these activities."
