29. From Wikipedia
•Twitter is an online social networking
service and microblogging service that
enables its users to send and read
text-based messages of up to 140
characters, known as ”tweets”.
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 29
o
30. From Wikipedia
•It was created in March 2006 by Jack
Dorsey and launched that July. The
service rapidly gained worldwide
popularity, with over 500 million active
users as of 2012, generating over 340
million tweets daily and handling over
1.6 billion search queries per day.
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 30
o
31. From Wikipedia
•Unregistered users can read tweets,
while registered users can post tweets
through the website interface, SMS, or a
range of apps for mobile devices

32. Twitter is a game
•One could argue that services for
sharing/constructing collective
knowledge online are also games (even if
they are not presented as such).
•The success of Twitter is linked with its
smooth Onboarding process.
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 32
o
33. Twitter's on boarding process
•Motivating Emotion: A new user tries
Twitter because he is curious of this
service.
•Social call to action: He discovers the
two basic actions : follow people and
write Tweets. He tries both.
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 33
o
34. Twitter's on boarding process
•User-rengagement : The user leaves
Twitter at this stage not sure whether
he will come back or not. With a little
chance, someone retweets his message
or reply to him. He sees his name with a
@ and infers the use of this typographic
sign. This continues triggering his
curiosity. He may comeback to continue
the conversation.
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 34
o
35. Twitter's on boarding process
•Visible progress: If his tweets are
relevant, the number of his followers
starts to increase. This explicit measure
of his importance on Twitter motivates
him to continue to tweet with a more or
less conscious objective to get more
followers.
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 35
o
36. Live Tweeting
•As the Twitter user becomes more expert, his perception of the social engagement loop
changes.
•He may track his social capital as measured by various services (e.g. Klout score)
•He discovers the best hours for twitting and optimizing RT.
•Consciously or unconsciously, he optimises his writing style to play better the game of
Twitter.
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 36
o
37. Live Tweeting in academic context
•LT increases your attention level
•LT permits to have other students remotely understanding what is happening in the class
•LT permits to create a back-channel to the course
Digital Humanities 101 - 2013/2014 - Course 1 | 2013 37
o
38. Open a Twitter account. Write your username in the Framapad, next
to your read name. Write a first Tweet.
