Reid,

I'd be interested in the parallel to your views that you find in Michael
Gibbons. His principal point, if I recall correctly, has to do with the
difference between "Mode 1" and "Mode 2" approaches to the production and
dissemination of knowledge. Is that your understanding?

The "Mode 2" approach seems to have important implications for the relations
between university research and the future of the Internet. Have you
discussed that relationship?

I don't recall is emphasizing the matter of the Ph.D. and university
employment.

I am addressing the term "list-relevant"

Air-1 Archives contain:

1096 Articles that contain "education" as a topic
491 that have references to "jobs"
708 that have reference to "positions"
2084 that have reference to "PhD and education"

Scholar.google.com reveals 103 peer reviewed articles on "Monster Board"
Alone

Scholar.google.com has 28,900 hits on "job search"

Scholar.google.com has 224 hits on "internet job search"

There are no references to Monster Board in the AOIR archive.

"The New Production of knowledge" Gibbons et al makes significant points
about PhD and Universities that parallels my view.

I guess I have no clue as to what is listserv-relevant.

There are only 600 references to "AOIR" total and some of them are about
"Ambient Ingress Oxygen Rate"

Christian,

I wouldn't say we all have the 'have to' impulse, having deleted a number of
these recent emails outright rather than wade through them all while hoping
for
something list-relevant :)

I'm not sure I see the connection between that kind of impetus and F2F
habits,
though - attending to list posts involves actively opening emails using a
medium that was designed for asynchronous communication, which I don't see
much
of a parallel to in face to face spoken discourse (though I could certainly
see
a parallel between the unopened mail in the inbox to the summons of a
telephone
ring, where the 'expected' action is to give the message your time).  I
think
defining 'the floor' as being the same in email and F2F is where I'm seeing
the
disconnect.

* "Have to"? That's the feeling I'm interested in. Does everyone feel
