Abstract
⺠We studied a Venezuelan protest on Twitter by complex network analysis. ⺠Three types of user behavior provoked the structural and dynamical patterns found. ⺠The retweets are the mechanism used for the information propagation process. ⺠Users group around specific collectives and behave selectively when taking action. ⺠Despite the social usage, traditional media hold lots of influence among users.
