[Air-L] CMC - mobile phones included?

[Taylor-Smith, Ella]

hi all

I'm based in the School of Computing, where many students increasingly develop mobile phone apps (among other things).
Some apps do similar things to the kind of things that we would have created for the Internet, when I did my masters there, 10 years ago.
And the folk before probably created similar things for cd-roms.
And probably even tried to develop similar things for teletext

So, from a development point of view, it doesn't make sense to seperate out mobile phones or social media.

CMC research can help developers to support, rather than hinder, communication.
(Plus of course a vast range of associated qualities like sociability and surveillance)
