From Meme To Social Fabric

Editor's Notes

  1. Its very hard to understand the subtle impact of a complex system. Same to social media. However, itā€™s very important to study social media from both micro and macro view. People can always see those visible stuffs, but they canā€™t realize how the big things were evolved. The difference in Social Media age is that people can see or even experience as the cooler of the news.
