At present, social media is full of information. Some of that information can be used as source data in various tasks. Therefore, citing social media documents is more common than before.

Internet search engines return information about social media publications when a search is performed. Videos are also found e.g. via YouTube, tweets in Twitter, Facebook updates by using the Facebook search. It is important to remember source criticism and copyright issues when that kind of information is used.
