Hi Jessika and AoIR friends, By way of comparison, you might find this helpful re content analysis: Ethnographic and Qualitative Research on Twitter by Alice E. Marwick http://www.tiara.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Marwick_Ethnographic-an... I'd also suggest a kind of Manuel Castellian contextualization to these questions re the course you were in with me - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html .

Dear all,
I am preparing to deliver a workshop about how to analyze and interpret the content of a *Facebook post*, specifically from an anthropological perspective.
I've come across quite a bit of literature about the significance of Facebook and social media for contemporary social science research, but little in the way of actual methods and techniques for interpreting data once you return from the field.
If you have any literature recommendations about this I would be very grateful. A focus on anthropology would be great, but of course I'm interested in learning more about how other internet researchers go about this.
thanks,
