Popeyes recently created a frenzy and generated approximately $23 million worth of advertising in 11 days by launching a new chicken sandwich. Following the announcement of their new sandwich, Popeyes Twitter account began responding to tweets from Chick-fil-A and other competitors about their sandwiches. When Chick-fil-A shared a tweet about their original chicken sandwich, Popeyes responded, yall good? (The International Business Times notes that Popeyes gained 25,000 followers overnight while Chick-fil-A gained 10,000.) This Twitter war over the superior chicken sandwich resulted in Popeyes new product selling out, much to the disdain of those eager to try out the sandwich and the frustration of Popeyes employees, who have largely been swarmed with customers without receiving any real support from their employer. As Complex points out, though, the success of this marketing didnt start with Popeyesit started with Black Twitter. --- If you're not voting like a black woman, your opinion doesn't matter to me ...

Frisbee, if that article is true, then I'm curious what your thoughts are on why black people choose to self-segregate on social media.
FrisbeeDude posted... Black Twitter isnt a specific group of people or organization but rather a space where Black Twitter users have formed what Feminista Jones calls a virtual community. As Farhad Manjoo wrote in Slate in 2010, Black peoplespecifically, young Black peopledo seem to use Twitter differently from everyone else on the service. They form tighter clusters on the network This part in particular. You would think given the anonymity of the internet, and the fact that when you're talking to people online you don't inherently know what their race, creed, gender, Etc are that you would find more diverse communities. Yet given the opportunity to Branch out, this seems to imply that they instead form a uniquely tight circle where others aren't welcome. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
