520    Drawing on 15 months of ethnographic research in one of 
       the most under-developed regions in the Caribbean island 
       of Trinidad, this book describes the uses and consequences
       of social media for its residents. Jolynna Sinanan argues 
       that this semi-urban town is a place in-between: somewhere
       city dwellers look down on and villagers look up to. The 
       complex identity of the town is expressed through uses of 
       social media, with significant results for understanding 
       social media more generally.  Not elevating oneself above 
       others is one of the core values of the town, and social 
       media becomes a tool for.
