research on social networking

1 comment:

  1. There are likely many sources out there about social networking sites; I'll provide some links to academic online sources here you might find useful.

    Some academic journals to look at would be Kairos: A journal of Rhetoric, Technology, and Pedagogy and Computers & Composition, as well as the more general ones.

    Here's a comprehensive bibliography of all articles published in the Computers & Composition journal:

    Here's a list of online journals you may find relevant articles in:

    http://rhetoric.eserver.org/journals (the rest of this site has many other resources as well).

    Here are some other online resources you could look at related to electronic communication. The first two are collections of online articles from about ten years ago when electronic communication (more email and MUDs/MOOs in that
    day) was first becoming of real interest to educators. The last is a more recent online collection focusing mainly on blogs, but which might be helpful.
