[Air-l] refs on myspace and facebook

[danah boyd]

Bonnie & others interested in this area - What i know thus far is  
listed on my site (and i'd encourage others to send me other articles  
that i should know about): http://www.zephoria.org/thoughts/archives/ 
2006/08/19/research_on_soc.html

Also, Nicole Ellison and i are putting together a special edition of  
JCMC on social network sites.  Abstracts are due November 28: http:// 
www.ischool.berkeley.edu/~dmb/jcmc-sns/  I suspect that we will see a  
lot of interesting research there (and i'd encourage those of you  
working in this space to submit).

Over the last 3 months, i've done a lot of reviewing of papers on  
social network sites.  I'd expect to see some work in this area  
coming out of CHI, First Monday, New Media and Society, and JCMC on  
the academic side.

I also have three papers in various states of review that i'd be  
happy to discuss off-list with anyone who is working in this area.   
(I don't want to foul up the review process and i'm not certain that  
they will be accepted so they aren't public.)

PS: It's not *that* impossible to reach me... although i do admit  
drownage.
