Dear colleagues:

We are happy to announce the newest issue (Vol. 
3, issue 1) of the International Journal of 
Internet Science that appeared in December.

The current issue features three original 
research contributions in the field of Internet 
science, and one book review. In our editorial we 
provide data about the journal's impact and 
likely reasons for the exciting news: it is at 
least 1.64 and likely >2, its immediacy is at 
1.17 (2006) and 0.71 (2007).
The specific areas covered by the articles are 
the quality of search engine count estimates, 
factors that determine Internet adoption in 
businesses, and the question of true e-democracy 
in e-governance. In addition, Tom Buchanan 
reviews the book 'Psychological Aspects of 
Cyberspace: Theory, Research Applications', 
edited by Azy Barak.
