Abstract

In 2004, the term ‘Web 2.0’ was coined to describe the new way in which users were consuming the Internet (Kaplan and Haenlein, 2010). It was on this new platform that the evolution of social media took place and consequently, the production of user generated content on a scale not previously seen (Kaplan and Haenlein, 2010). Twitter is among the array of social media sites and is currently the fastest growing and most popular microblogging site in the world (Atefeh and Khreich, 2015).
