[Air-L] Subject: Re: user generated content, motivation to post

[Sal Humphreys]

I've been thinking about user generated content through the framework of
exchange, and exploring the ways in which the different 'economies' of
exchange interact within some social networking sites(eg. information,
economic, social or affective, and reputation exchanges). It's interesting
to look at motivations across a broad range of exchanges and how these may
be interlinked in quite complex ways. I've written a conference paper about
it available at http://eprints.qut.edu.au/26455/
