It quite possibly the weirdest name circumstance I can imagine, I, Rebecca A. Hayes, am replying to Rebecca M. Hayes (who, in another random coincidence, teaches where my dad taught for years) in response to this, but I digress. Becky, In some selfish self-citing, check out Carr, C. T., & Hayes, R. A. (2015). Social media: Defining, developing, and divining. *Atlantic Journal of Communication*, 23(1), 46-65. doi:10.1080/15456870.2015.972282 I can send you a copy if you don't have access.

First of all I have found this group to be an amazing resource. So thank you.
Second, I am a criminologist who researches social media, so I am still learning. That said, I am looking for a good and trusted academic resource for definitions for social media sites. It could be a book, or a website, but I am attempting to provide appropriate definitions for reddit, 4chan, YikYak, etc.
What is a go-to source for that?
Thank you in advance!
Best,
Becky
