Italians went to the polls recently producing two results many thought interesting and a bit frightening. There was the resurrection of Berlusconi for the umpteenth time even as he is being investigated for a $3+ million bribe. You cannot hold him down. The second was the emergence of Beppe Grillo as a political leader with lots of votes. Of course, the result that seemed a bit threatening is that there is no majority, and having to produce a government from no majority can seem unsettling.

What I was not prepared for was the nearly instant tweeting of photos of the riot and the suspects who were participating in the riot. This was a new phenomenon for the VPD, as was the social justice and social shaming that occurred in the days following. Social media was all of a sudden front-and-centre, with “Identify the Rioter” Facebook pages popping up and photos being shared over and over again.

Historically (and statistically), social media has always skewed slightly favourably towards women, and recent studies suggest that almost three-quarters (71 percent) of internet female users are active on one or more social media sites, compared to slightly less than two-thirds (62 percent) of men. Typically, women are more likely to use Twitter (which has a 62 percent female populous), Facebook (58 percent women) and, of course, Pinterest (70 percent women), whereas men dominate Google+ (64 percent men), LinkedIn (54 percent men) and YouTube (54 percent men).

During natural disasters people tend to use social media for four interrelated reasons: checking in with family and friends, obtaining emotional support and healing, determining disaster magnitude, and providing first-hand disaster accounts. A consistent research finding is that people are less likely to follow official, government sources on social media than their friends and family during disasters.

Text. It’s the gateway to incredible troves of first-person insight, but it can also be the bane of market research. The more text you have access to, the more you can learn — but how can you chew through enough text to get statistically significant results, without spending weeks and weeks on the process?
