    1. Twitter. November 2023. Page Version ID: 1187856185. URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter (visited on 2023-12-01).

      This is a link to a wikipedia article in which it summarizes what Twitter is, not called X. Specifically, this source says, "X, formerly known as Twitter, is an American microblogging and social networking service, headquartered in Bastrop, Texas. It is one of the world's largest social media platforms and one of the most-visited websites." This source is relevant because we discuss Twitter/X fairly frequently in our class so it is important to know what it is and what it does.

    1. Metadata is information about some data. So we often think about a dataset as consisting of the main pieces of data (whatever those are in a specific situation), and whatever other information we have about that data (metadata).

      I have always heard of meta data but was never totally sure of what it meant. This lesson really helped me to understand metadata and now I personally find it quite interesting. This chapter is reminding me that we really have no idea of what goes on behind the scenes every time we make posts or interact on social media. It is really cool to learn all the coding and information that goes into these things.
