In cyberspace, a hyperlink from one website into another one is a link that connects various websites into each other. Connecting sites by hyperlink provides a nested network from information resources that its extent hypothetically covers the whole web space. In this research, I try to study a hyperlink network which is formed among sites presented by so-called “Filtering Page” at “www.peyvandha.ir” URL. This research aims to study link structure in this networks and recognize key nodes or that of key sites. To do so, after reviewing theoretical foundations of two basic approaches in Webometrics & Hyperlink Network Analysis in the field of social network analysis, I consider a 2370 list of religious-cultural sites presented by filtering page on 5 different sections as an input list for web crawler of SocioBot. The findings indicate that there are just 3 hyperlink networks with very low density in macro level and just 2 key sites in micro level, as well.

This study attempted to understand the features and factors associated with representation of privacy among the Facebook users and its cultural consequences. To achieve this goal, first, we studied the cultural and semantic perceptions of the users about the concept of privacy in order to provide a basis for the study of representation, concealment and protection of privacy among the users. In order to understand cultural patterns, we used virtual ethnography. Through the fieldwork we performed online and offline ethnographical interviews with 21 active Facebook users in different intervals. The findings of this study indicated a core feature to be the diversity of the cultural definitions of the users of the concept of privacy. It is based on two factors of “tendency to represent” and “tendency to hide”. The synonyms of these concepts in social interactions are “tendency to view” and “tendency to review”.
