Dear air-l members:
Below please find the Call to participate in the fifth GOR conference
that is organized by the German Society for Online Research
(D.G.O.F.). The idea to hold GOR conferences developed far back in
the early days of Online Research and Internet Science, it evolved
amidst the German speaking community of those people interested in
using the Internet for research and in studying various aspects of
the Internet. This communities' mailing list has now more than 1200
subscribers, and GOR conferences have been attended by many Internet
Scientists from all over the world (GOR '01 was attended by 320
people, there were about 90 presentations, one third of them were
held in English).
D.G.O.F. and AoIR have overlapping scopes of interest, so we have
been in close contact with members of the AoIR board to ensure that
it will be convenient for travelers to attend both conferences. GOR
will be October 10 and 11 (Thursday and Friday), AoIR will start
Sunday - so there is some time for sightseeing and experiencing the
new freedom of a unified European currency :-D There will be
reduction in registration fees for people who attend both conferences.
Best wishes from Zurich,
