Summary/Abstract: To Make Public or Twitting in Stone. The aim of this article is to study three ways to make a message public: tweets, videos of discourses posted on Daily Motion and the publication of a book at the beginning of the twentieth century where sentences were drawn as tweets with a pencil on stone by a shepherd. Through the anthropological analysis of signs production and diffusion, we observe the permeability between the private and the public field, the influence of the writing and the oral activity as well as the distinctions between the published, the public, and the popularity of these three mentioned forms.
