Dear colleagues,

I am curious to find out if there are scholars who have used Latour's 
Actor Network Theory for describing the internet as a network of human 
and non-human (technical) actors.

I think that such an approach were fundamentally flawed, but would like 
to know if anyone has already attempted and published such a description?

Christian
