Abstract
Social networking applications have emerged as the platform of choice for carrying out a number of different activities online. In addition to their primary target of social interaction, we now also employ such applications to search for information online or to share multimedia content with our friends and families. For instance, according to recent statistics, each of us spends on average 15 min on YouTube every day.
