And from another former student who wrote a dissertation on twitter, Fawn Draucker:

It isn't super recent (2011), but this book might have something good, particularly chapter 2 if it doesn't have to be Twitter focused:https://global.oup.com/academic/product/digital-discourse-9780199795444?cc=us&lang=en&#

Ruth Page's work on Twitter is also good, I particularly like the stuff between 2010 and 2012 (haven't read some of the more recent stuff so it may be good too :)

Greetings all,

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good, clear piece of work on twitter or social media of the kind that David Crystal wrote on texting in 2008? I'd like to locate something more current along that line.

One piece is the 2015 AE article: #Ferguson: Digital protest, hashtag ethnography, and the racial politics of social media in the US. However, the class has already spent a good deal of time discussing language and race, so I am hoping to find another option.

Thanks for any suggestions!
