danah boyd speaks
i often read danah boyd's blog. she's become well known for her research on myspace and writes lots of nice techno-cultural musings with emphasis on social software.
always glad to hear her take on things yet my appreciation has been taken to a whole new level of high after watching video accessed here:
ibiblio speaker series: a discussion with danah boyd
it took a very long time to download yet is well worth the wait, topics covered include:
myspace, friendster (history of use)
physical & online space (emphasis on teen's)
homeless population's use of technology
moral panic (online predators)
social norms & social software (status, balancing conflicting social identities)
