A study published in the journal
Management Science stated that the content creators are declining as
these users are more inclined towards sharing information at intimate
places rather than on social media.
The research is co-authored by an
Indian-origin Ganesh Iyer and Zsolt Katona from the University of
California, Berkeley - Haas School of Business stated "Social
communication incentives diminish even as the reach or the span of
communication increases,". According to the research the users are
unable to gauge the perception and cater to end user due to the distance
and relevance of the matter.
Katona stated that "Industry reports
estimate that just 10 percent of Twitter users broadcast 90 percent of
the network's tweets, while only a tiny fraction of the 55 million users
who blog post daily"
As per the research the information or
message have declined for a while however the trend was brought to light
very recently. the research showcased a link with numerous social media
sources few are recipients of the message and rest of them are just
sharing in turn causing a decline in new content. The problem is further
aided by the fact that many of the users are located are various part
of the globe and it becomes difficult for the 'content creators' to
understand and crater to the needs of these individuals.
The authors added " As competition
grows, some senders decide the payoff is not worth the trouble and drop
out, and others decide not to enter the fray, which explains why the
proportion of senders to receivers is so low.".
