1. https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20201216-how-tiktok-changed-the-world-in-2020- As all of you might know, the BBC has always been the largest news portal covering the most important events taking place in the world, so you can also read an article about the influence of Tik Tok on society and culture in general. This article, using the example of real users, tells how the algorithms of the application work, while highlighting the sensational scandal involving former US President Donald Trump, the well-known protest movement Black Lives Matter, the so-called New Era of Collaborative Art and that the world has taken a big step towards the future, entered the digital era and will never be the same again.

2. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/10/style/what-is-tik-tok.html - New York Times magazine is also a popular resource that is known all over the world and one of its articles talks about the difference between Tik Tok and other social networks, claiming that Tik Tok is not a person or a group of people in a Chinese company, where the parent industry itself is called Deyong located, but a whole machine or artificial intelligence generating content 24/7.

3.https://www.tiktok.com/business/en/blog - This is another good source, or if to be more precise - a good blog spot that was created by “Community Tok” of a company to clearly show how to make from a usual entertainment a real business. 

4. Last but not less important is the application of Tik Tok itself, obviously. If you want to understand the system, become a part of that system. The app is fully free for downloading and it shows “inner consistency” of trends, short-cut videos, and all the pleasure of procrastinating another two hours watching small sketch comedies in a live format.
