“…It is not surprising if it is mentioned that mass media has become a medium that helps people spread messages (Sumartono, 2016). Cavalcanti, Pinto, Brubaker, & Dombrowski (Cavalcanti, Pinto, Brubaker, & Dombrowski, 2017) explain that the notion of mass communication is as a type of communication delivered through mass media and produce a product in the form of communication messages. The message Jurnal The Messenger, Vol.…”

This study was conducted based on the results of research from several survey institutions which explained that there was an indication of shifting patterns from old media to the new media. The researchers wanted to know the level of satisfaction of the youth in using the new media among the community with the students of Universitas Sebelas Maret, generation 2015 to 2017. In this study, the researchers used the Uses and Gratification approaches. The researchers also use quantitative analysis and the Slovin formula to calculate samples of respondents from each generation. The frequency distribution analysis technique was used to calculate the frequency of data and then procentaged. The result of this study is that there is a high level of satisfaction where the majority of the respondents feel that they get the satisfaction they want or look for when watching talk show program through Youtube.

“…They also find differing practices with WhatsApp, that messages are exchanged more often, are more conversational in nature, are used to communicate within closer social circles and are used more often for group-based communication. Studies of WhatsApp and other mobile instant messengers [7,24,25,29,32,34,37,50,54] point to an always connected, always on style of communication where asynchronous interactions pervade day-to-day lives to produce "a particular way of being together ... that is casual and never-ending" [36].…”

We have created and evaluated a novel mobile messaging app named Curtains Messenger. The app has been designed to support synchrony in messaging. It does this by requiring users to be in the app at the same time as each other in order to send, receive and read messages. This design is contrary to typical apps where messages can be sent and read asynchronously at an individual's convenience. We have conducted a field trial in which 15 users installed the app on their own devices and used it in the wild. We present a qualitative analysis of interviews with the participants following the trial. The findings address how the app was used, how synchrony affected conversational flows, how synchrony raised issues of attention and intimacy, and what issues users faced in the practical work of conducting synchronous messaging. This work demonstrates how core concepts in the study of cooperative work such as a/synchrony can be drawn upon to reconsider taken-for-granted design features of mobile applications and the lived experience of communication.

“…Through this kind of service, users can share contents (e.g., text, images or videos), which are exhibited temporarily on the system. In other words, the shared content has an exhibit deadline on ephemeral media platforms (Cavalcanti et al, 2017).…”

“…This continuous interaction is necessary because the shared content is available just for a short time. For instance, a content shared on Whatsapp Status and Instagram Stories are available only for 24 hours (Bayer et al, 2016) (Xu et al, 2016) (Cavalcanti et al, 2017).…”

“…Considering this scenario, ephemeral communication services bring challenges to Collaborative Systems community and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) community concerning the user experience (UX) and sociability. Once it is necessary to maximize the satisfactory experience of use and to continuously stimulate the quality of social interaction (i.e., sociability (Preece, 2000) (De Souza & Preece, 2004)) on these kind of system (Bayer et al, 2016) (Cavalcanti et al, 2017).…”

The use of ephemeral media platforms, like Instagram Stories, has been growing and the ephemeral characteristic of these platforms has created a new form of interaction mediated by technology. This work aimed to characterize how Instagram Stories supports the sociability among its members and to discuss the impact of this proposed sociability in the social interaction of users. We conducted this research in three steps. First, we executed an evaluation in a perspective of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) experts, which aimed to analyze whether the features offered by Instagram Stories are adequate to user experience (UX) and sociability guidelines. Next, we performed an evaluation from the users' perspective, in order to investigate users' experience while they are interacting through Instagram Stories. Finally, we made a triangulation of the results and we discussed the impact of Instagram Stories in the social interaction of users. The results showed that the interface and interaction model of Instagram Stories reflects directly on the experience of use and sociability of its members, once this system offers features to support the social interaction, but the way these features are available on interface may limit the sociability among its users. As contributions, this work reinforces the importance of sociability as a strategy of use quality to improve user experience and social interaction on collaborative systems. Besides that, we present recommendations and insights to Collaborative Systems and HCI communities about the design and evaluation of ephemeral communication services.
