The purpose of this study is to understand how a new medium (Facebook) is used by Twilight literature fans and how users are gratified through their use of the new medium. Fans are categorized in one of two forms (consumer-fans and producer-fans) and a two by two matrix is developed to categorize these two fan types. In relation to media, the age of a targeted audience determines the content. It has however become a blurred line in literature and film, in which case content that was intended for a younger audience is attracting the attention of an older audience (and vice versa).

Their former goals of having big houses or reputations have lost their meaning. They feel at sea and vulnerable in a way that’s unfamiliar and scary.

Underlying Homer's account of brutal military operations, alliances, and cataclysmic struggle is a palpable understanding that the direction in which humanity was headed could create a world that was uninhabitable.
