Abstract

GARZON QUIROZ, Mao Queen. Informetric analysis of the metaverse in Spanish-speaking channels and videos on YouTube. Podium [online]. 2022, n.41, pp.141-156.  Epub June 30, 2022. ISSN 2588-0969.  https://doi.org/10.31095/podium.2022.41.9.

The objective is to characterize the impact in terms of views, likes and comments received for videos about the Metaverse and related terms, published and broadcast through YouTube in Spanish; and finally, to categorize the channels through which these videos related to this phenomenon have been published. For the study, a quantitative and cross-sectional descriptive informatic analysis was used on 5,479 videos published until April 10, 2022, and 822 YouTube channels. The results showed that there is a direct correlation between the views, likes, and comments of the published videos. In addition, videos under certain YouTube categories have a high impact on views despite having low volumes of publications regarding this phenomenon. It is also concluded that YouTube can be used as a data source for computer analysis along with other tools and skills.

Keywords : Metaverse; Virtual Worlds; Virtual Reality; Augmented Reality; Informetric Analysis; YouTube.
