[Christopher A Jones]

Hello all, sorry for the delay. I have been having connectivity  
issues today.

Here is the compilation of all the responses I received. Again, thank  
you to all who contributed.

Lots of fun things linked here, as well:

or here:

triangulate from the two, maybe?

Andre Brock (andre-brock at uiowa.edu) just completed a dissertation  
analyzing
web sites relating to Hurricane Katrina, titled "Defining a Community  
and a
Culture: Racial Identity Production by African American and Mainstream
Websites".

Hi Christopher
Sorry for replying so late but my Universities email server has been  
done all weekend and I have only just
noticed your message.
My doctoral research involved a discourse analysis (using Foucauldian  
archaeology and genealogy methods,
with critical discourse analysis and sociolinguistics - somehow  
cobbled together) of the discourse of consumer
empowerment in e-commerce including a close analysis of the ninemsn  
(Australian portal) website.
Let me know if there is any help I can offer you as there wasn't an  
awful lot of available material when I was
conducting my study.
Cheers
Dr Kylie Jarrett


thanks
