Hi Everyone,
As many of you might know, particularly the sociologists, this week the
American Sociological Association's meetings begin in Montreal. (And no, the
sociologists haven't been kicked out of the US yet - they voluntarily left
for a week).
There are two technology-oriented sections of the ASA: SKAT (science,
knowledge and technology) and CITASA (communications and information
technology). CITASA is more Internet-oriented. Like last year, CITASA is
having a miniconference the day before the ASAs. This time around it will be
live online!
There are three roundtables at the miniconference: "Ubiquitous Computing",
"Online Social Networks" and "Online Health Resources". I'm the moderator of
the second session (Online Social Networks). And I encourage you to check
out our wiki, and perhaps even add a journal article / news story or two.

If you'll be in Montreal, don't hesitate to check out the miniconference or
the other CITASA events. And if you've already broke the bank on a trip to
Australia, consider checking out the event live online.
Take care,
BERNiE
