Hello!
I've seen several papers in Russian about LiveJournal, but they were of a
poor quality (as everything in Russia concerning internet research). If you
are in Moscow or in St. Petersburg - we could meet and discuss your
research.
Best wishes,
Semenov Alexander.

Subject: [Air-L] Livejournal sources, specifically the Russian segment
Hi everyone,
I'm currently on fieldwork in Russia, researching how environmentalist
bloggers make use of LJ in their social/political relations, and
development and perfomance of personal identity. Basically the use
value of the whole thing for these people :)
I've been quite out of the loop with checking journals/Athens/Google
Scholar and all the rest for the past little while, and was wondering
if there were any studies I have missed. Anything that touches on
Livejournal would be great, but anything dealing with specifically
Russian facets would also be great..either in English or Russian.
Normally I'd share full citations of sources I've already found to be
useful, but I've been relegated to an internet cafe here and do not
have any to hand. Off the top of my head though, Eugene Gorny's 2004
study of 'national specifics' of Russian LJ is worth looking for, as is
'Control+Shift', a book I think edited by Katie Teubener. Anything by
Terri Senft is wonderful for LJ in general.
Urgh..my memory is suffering..
So yes..any sources that anyone could recommend would be gratefully
received!
