I've collected these bits from previous e-mails (from Martin Dodge 
and Richard Rogers):

R Rogers, ed., 2000,  Preferred Placement - Knowledge Politics on the Web,
Maastricht: Jan van Eyck. (Martin Dodge has a piece in this as well.)

R Rogers and N Marres, "Landscaping Climate Change: A mapping technique for
understanding science and technology debates on the World Wide Web," Public
Understanding of Science, April 2000, http://www.iop.org/Journals/pu

I'd also recommend I/O/D's Web Stalker at http://www.backspace.org/iod/

I hope that helps.
