[Air-l] Communities and Technologies 2007 Update

[Charles Steinfield]

Hello all,
This is just a brief reminder about the Communities and Technologies  
2007 conference at Michigan State University, and to let you all know  
that we've opened the online submission system now.  Don't panic:  
there is still lots of time. The paper submission deadline is  
November 13, 2006, and the workshop proposal submission deadline is  
December 4, 2006.

For those who haven't seen announcements about this meeting, it is  
the third in a series of biennial meetings bringing together scholars  
from a range of disciplines interested in topics relevant to the  
broad area of ICTs and communities (both physical and virtual).  The  
conference web site is:

In addition to a day of workshops, and two days of competitively  
selected papers, we have several featured speakers now planned,  
including Judith Donath, Director of the Social Media Group at the  
MIT Media Lab, and Rob Malda and Jeff Bates, co-founders of  
Slashdot.  We also will have a featured workshop on tools and  
techniques for illustrating digital traces led by Marc Smith,  
Director of the Community Technologies Group at Microsoft Research.

Please consider submitting a paper!

regards,
Chip Steinfield
