The rise in social networking sites (SNS) has inevitably instilled addictive behaviors amongst its users causing social media addiction. Social media addiction has since been found to be a bigger problem to the current society as it causes certain users to develop disorders and compulsive behaviors which leads to negative effects. In view of this, social media addiction and social media disorders has since been the focus study amongst academicians and researchers. This conceptual paper will discuss about the relationship between social media addiction and social media disorders among Malaysian youths. To investigate this relationship, several dimensions for social media disorders are defined such as preoccupation, tolerance, withdrawal, persistence, escape, problems, deception, displacement and conflict. Furthermore, the mediating effect of loneliness will also be evaluated on the relationship between social media addiction and social media disorders. Eventually, this article will propose a conceptual framework which links social media addiction, social media disorders and loneliness. Literature content for all the variables are included in this study to provide context for better understanding and future roadmaps into empirical study of this paper would be provided towards the end of this article.

The Attention Economy and the New Forms of Digital Exploitation This article offers a survey of various new forms of exploitation made possible by Internet. Crowdsourcing enlarges competition among intellectual workers ; free labor is re-appropriated by corporations ; we become the product when services are provided “for free”. The attention economy lurks at the horizon of such new developments, requiring new concepts and new tools in order to understand how it upsets traditional views of exploitation.

Les managers ont pris conscience que se démarquer de ses concurrents devient de plus en plus complexe. Les nouvelles formes de communication rencontrent dans ce cadre, un vif succès. Il serait cependant risqué de les considérer comme la panacée à une meilleure visibilité sur le marché. Ces techniques qui se fondent sur les communications interpersonnelles, ont leurs propres règles et limites qu’il convient d’identifier. Une synthèse des recherches portant sur le concept de viralité est proposée dans cet article. Les mécanismes de bouche-à-oreille y sont explicités avant d’exposer les spécificités des nouvelles techniques de communication et plus particulièrement du buzz marketing. Mots- clés : buzz, bouche-à-oreille, réseau social, leaders d’opinion, protocole, loyauté. Managers recognise that to set apart from competitors becomes increasingly complex. This comment explains why new forms of communication are flourishing. However, it is not reasonable to regard them as a panacea to an enhanced visibility on the market. These methods which are based on interpersonal communications have their own rules and limits. So in this article, we propose a synthesis of studies relating to the concept of viral interaction. Word of mouth mechanisms are clarified before revealing the specificities of techniques of communication recently appeared and more specifically of buzz marketing. Keywords : buzz, word-of-mouth, social network, opinion leader, protocol, loyalty. Los managers se han dado cuenta de que cada vez es más complicado desmarcarse de la competencia. Las nuevas formas de comunicación encuentran en este marco un gran éxito. Sin embargo sería arriesgado considerarlas como la panacea para una mejor visibilidad en el mercado. Esas técnicas que tienen su base en las comunicaciones interpersonales tienen sus proprias reglas y límites que conviene identificar. Se propone en este artículo una síntesis de las investigaciones basadas en el concepto de « viralidad ». En él se explican los mecanismos del boca en boca antes de exponer las particularidades de las nuevas técnicas de comunicación y especialmente las del « buzz marketing ». Palabras claves : « buzz », de boca en boca, red social, líderes de opinión, protócolo, honradez.
