The continued rise of visually orientated social networks, the dominance of Middle East social media by Facebook and the wider Facebook family, and continued tensions between telecoms providers and services which allow free internet calls, are all charted in my fifth annual study on the state of social media in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
The study offers an up-to-date analysis of how people across the Middle East use social media. It follows previous publications covering developments in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015.
