[Air-l] Key Terms

[Andrejevic, Mark]

I may not have caught all of the terms mentioned so far -- but the
conspicuous absence to me is the most ever-present term in Internet
discourse, indeed, a cognate: 
interactivity...that little "i" that seems to creep in front of everything.
It strikes me as perhaps the most in need of interrogation and examination,
as so much of the promise of new media hinges upon it.
My 2 cents.
Mark

Thom --

	Some possibilities, including a couple already mentioned:

Place

Surveillance

E-commerce

Mobility

Ubiquity

Origins (a history of...section)

Privacy

	I'm actually about to teach portions of the book in a Social Impact
of 
Digital Media class and am a fan; these are some of the categories that 
I've found myself wishing were already there.

Best,
Fred
