Friends

I agree with Holly and Rick, this list is a great way to keep up with
things that are ongoing within Internet studies, and I feel fortunate to
have the opportunity to, as Rick said, "peruse them at my leisure." This
list often stimulates my thinking and helps me feel a sense of belonging
within the academic community.

As always, my thanks, Peter
