Facebook: Changing the Face of Communication Research. e-jurnal
The ubiquitous social networking site, Facebook, registered over one billion active users in 2012 and continues to grow (Facebook, 2018a). Not surprisingly, communication researchers around the world noticed this phenomenal shift in communication practice, a practice aided by a combination of digital communication tools--easy to access communication networks, low cost bandwidth, smartphones, application features, and so on. These developments transformed the understanding of "social networks," turning them from face-to-face interactions among small groups into world spanning digital connections, from networks of business or professional associations supported by analogue or "old" communication practices (such as letter writing, telephone calls, or conference meetings) into always-on real-time tracking of people's activities.
