Hi,

Just a short comment on ethics in internet research. It is very  
interesting for me as a researcher of moral communities and moral  
language of forums and discussion boards, how moral uncertainty  
prevails in internet research as well: we don't know who these  
mediated others are and what their intentions might be and we are  
uncertain how we should treat them, regardless whether we are doing  
research or using forums. Here I cited Roger Silverstone and Shani Orgad
who have discussed this topic very interestingly.
