WEBCAST TODAY: CITI State of Telecom 2017 – The Internet’s Next Bottlenecks? Major Platforms, Video Clouds, and the Middle Mile
by Joly MacFie 17 Nov '17

17 Nov '17

This just kicking off. As mentioned before, CITI's move online is very much caused by rebuilding on campus leading to a lack of space, albeit welcome. This year's SoT is as topical as ever, if somewhat briefer than we are accustomed. joly posted: " Today Friday November 17th 2017 the Columbia Institute for Tele-Information presents its annual State of Telecom conference.

Re: [Air-L] Have Instagram data
by Maurice Vergeer 17 Nov '17

For long term benefits, open source and for free learn R. In the short term it won't help you because the learning curve it quite steep. But, if you like to code and tinker with data in general and want to be productive and independent of commercial enterprises, R is the way to go. Sorry if this almost sounds like a sales pitch. But as I said, it's for free and open source. For scraping rvest is the main package. Other relevant packages for internet-research goals can be found here: https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/WebTechnologies.html hope this helps Maurice On Fri, Nov 17, 2017 at 12:31 PM, Aysenur Ataman < aataman(a)gradcenter.cuny.edu> wrote: > I’m not sure what is it you are interested in blogs and sites but with > Netlytic, I believe you can scrape comments written under blog post.

17 Nov '17

The Translation and Translanguaging (TLANG) project is delighted to invite you to our research seminar on language, social media and migration. The event is free, but registration is required (by Friday 12th January). Please register online<https://www.eventbrite.com/e/social-media-seminar-tickets-38103017150?utm_s…>, and see the schedule and speaker abstracts<https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/generic/tlang/events/index.aspx> at the bottom of our list of forthcoming events. Research seminar Language, social media and migration: the role of mobile communication technologies in migrants’ everyday lives Friday 2nd February 2018, 10am – 4:00pm 139, School of Education, University of Birmingham Hosted by the AHRC-funded project Translation and Translanguaging<https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/generic/tlang/index.aspx> (TLANG) This seminar explores the use of social media, particularly as conducted via mobile technology, by individuals in contexts of mobility and migration. It takes into account the fact that digital interactions are usually intertwined with ‘offline’ activities and that social media platforms are generally embedded into physical contexts, with the result that people move fluidly between online and offline environments in performing identity, building relationships and carrying out everyday tasks and negotiations. The methodological implications include the need for a form of blended linguistic ethnography which explores the situated nature of online communicative practices within individuals’ wider lives. The role of social media in the process of integration into a new country is of increasing significance to many migrants, as they maintain and exploit links to their countries of origin at the same time as making new connections in a host country, and as they seek to resist and subvert the ways in which they can be positioned in a host country. By focusing on how migrants actively exploit digital technology as they integrate into a host country, we also respond to public concern around migration and social integration following such high profile events as the migration crisis in Europe and the UK’s vote to leave the European Union. The seminar brings together sociolinguistics scholars and ethnographers working in these areas, including the TLANG team, in order to share empirical data and insights and to work towards developing theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches.

Have Instagram data
by Anne Helmond 17 Nov '17

17 Nov '17

Hi Bartira, I recently used the following Instagram tool/scraper: https://github. com/rarcega/instagram-scraper It allows for scraping photos for a single or multiple users, but also for hashtags. You can also retrieve metadata such as comments. It requires a bit of a technical setup to use, so if you are unfamiliar with running scripts you might need to ask someone for help. In general these are the installation instructions (which I tested and worked and which my students successfully replicated): 1. Install pip https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/ 2. Install Python 2.7x https://www.python.org/do wnloads/release/python-2713/ 3. Then follow install instructions on https://github.com/rarcega/ instagram-scraper <https://github.com/rarcega/instagram-scraper> 4. If you follow the steps on the page it should work Hope this helps.
