Information Diffusion
• Reflects “potentials of power transition”• Egypt, Libya, MENA ( 뭐의 약자 ?)• Twitter/FB critical or supplementary?– One thing for sure: records of word-of-mouth
spreading

Traces of Twitpic
• Guaranteed single source• Unique URL• Twitter-internal starting point

Some Twitter specifics
• Our unit of information = Twitpic– Affiliated web site of pictures
• Why not tweets themselves?– We are looking at tweets of trending topics
• Why not general URLs?– Typically in shortened forms (bit.ly, tinyurl, t.co)– Can be in multiple shortened forms– Hard to identify sources

Case Study : Evolution of #Views
• # of user clicks on the Twitpic URL– limitation : some Twitter clients show the photos
without clicks (no count up)
• Tracing # of view counts – for every hour– 2010.08.15 ~ 2010.08.26– for talkative users

Caveats
• Not complete from an ego-centric perspective

Two Sides of Relationship
• Formation and Dissolution– Formation tradiationally well studied– Dissolution hardly much
• Why?– Hard to obtain data
• Proxy for dissolution– No exchange of email [Kossinet09]

Two Questions We Raise
• How prevalent is unfollow?
• Why do people unfollow?
![Page 35: Human Behavior as Recorded on the Web WebST Symposium Thursday, February 24 th, 2011 Imperial Palace Hotel, Seoul Sue Moon Graduate Program of Web Science](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d645503460f94a46be3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Four Types of Tweet
• TweetPSSM is now starting!
• Reply@Virgilio Fantastic Workshop! Thanks for having me!
• MentionI am attending PSSM organized by @Virgilio and @PK!
• RetweetAt UFMG till tomorrow! RT @Virgilio PSSM is now start-ing!
![Page 36: Human Behavior as Recorded on the Web WebST Symposium Thursday, February 24 th, 2011 Imperial Palace Hotel, Seoul Sue Moon Graduate Program of Web Science](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d645503460f94a46be3/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Proportion of Tweet Types
Users become more informational than interactive as the number of followees increases
![Page 37: Human Behavior as Recorded on the Web WebST Symposium Thursday, February 24 th, 2011 Imperial Palace Hotel, Seoul Sue Moon Graduate Program of Web Science](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d645503460f94a46be3/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
How Prevalent Is Unfollow?
37
![Page 38: Human Behavior as Recorded on the Web WebST Symposium Thursday, February 24 th, 2011 Imperial Palace Hotel, Seoul Sue Moon Graduate Program of Web Science](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d645503460f94a46be3/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Follows and Unfollows
Unfollow is prevalent!
![Page 39: Human Behavior as Recorded on the Web WebST Symposium Thursday, February 24 th, 2011 Imperial Palace Hotel, Seoul Sue Moon Graduate Program of Web Science](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d645503460f94a46be3/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Unfollow frequent
• Mostly singular– 66% of unfollows are the only unfollow of the day
• But often clustered– 10% with 5 or more other unfollows
• On average– 90% of time intervals between days of unfollow is
less than 9 days
![Page 40: Human Behavior as Recorded on the Web WebST Symposium Thursday, February 24 th, 2011 Imperial Palace Hotel, Seoul Sue Moon Graduate Program of Web Science](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d645503460f94a46be3/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Communication partner
• Reciprocal and interactive users– Exchange of a mention, a reply, or a retweet and
vice versa

42
Passive Nature of Follow
• 85.6% relationships involve no activity• 96.3% involve 3 or fwer• Who unfollows?– Remove 85.6% of no activity and among those
with any activity unfollowed relationships involves less activity than unbroken relationships
