Hi Sigal sounds interesting. Like Cameron, I'd ask about what definition you have for "online graffitti" - online archives of physical real-world graffitti one of my favourites is Banksy's own site: http://www.banksy.co.uk/ - online spaces which are set up for free expression (wow, this is so broad it could mean *anything*! perhaps, an online environment with a graphic tool set? anybody fancy trying to define this category?) - defacement of existing online content? years ago attrition kept an archive of hacked websites http://www.attrition.org/mirror/attrition/ I am not sure who might be keeping current lists? good luck, let us know how you get on!

Re: [Air-l] Research on Internet Use in Finland?

There has been a fair amount of research on democracy, citizenship and the Net in Finland. The Information society institute at University of Tampere stopped its operations in 2005 but their publications can be found at http://www.uta.fi/laitokset/ISI/english/publications.html - and the people can be easily reached. In Helsinki, Sinikka Sassi http://www.valt.helsinki.fi/staff/ssassi/ is working on citizenship and info soc and she would also be able to point out other people investigating the area. In Turku, Pekka Räsänen (http://users.utu.fi/pekras/index.html) has published a fair amount. At University of Joensuu there have been interesting projects on local info soc projects although not all of these are about the net per se: Johanna Uotinen (johanna.uotinen(a)joensuu.fi) is a good person to contact. The sponsored portals (http://www.tietoyhteiskunta.fi/in_english/) (http://e.finland.fi/) tend to little critical edge but archives on publications and such. Hope this is of some help.

Do you think about wireless networking?
by Ji-Eun KIm 16 May '06

16 May '06

Hi. I talk about that networking sites go wireless. We aren't just talking on cell phones. Now as many sites go wireless, they enable full access from a mobile phone. So we can access cyberspace anytime. It's very convenient. But on the other hand that is problem. Because its potential dangers become easier to access anywhere, anytime for our kids. Do you think about wireless networking? Please give me your opinion. Thank you for reading!! --------------------------------------------------------------- Ji-eun Kim, Young-nam university student (from Korea) mail : amunim@naver.com------------------------------------------------------------------------ 새로운 기부 문화의 씨앗, 해피빈 http://happybean.naver.com

Hi. I am a Korean. I talk about that social networking sites go wireless. Now we aren't just talking on cell phones. For millions, the phones are a camera, an instant message machine and soon, an entry to the social clubs of cyberspace. So we can access convenient cyberspace anytime. But on the other hand that is problem. Because its potential dangers become easier to access anywhere, anytime for our kids. Do you think about wireless social networking?

Dear Michele, Thank you for pointing us to this book on the Finland and the Information Society. I have requested that my library get it for me. > Suoranta, J. and Lehtimaki, H. (2004). Children In the > Information Society: The Case of Finland. New York: > Peter Lang. I was also happy to see the blog by Juha Suoranta. He and I share other interests.

Research on Internet Use in Finland?
by Jay Hauben 15 May '06

15 May '06

Hi, Ronda Hauben and I will be in Finland at the end of May attending a history of technology conference. Finland has played an important role providing innovative uses for the Internet such as IRC and intellectual frames to look at the Internet such as the Information Society. Also, Finland is the birthplace of Linux. In recent literature Finland is often mentioned as sharing with South Korea the distinction of the largest percent of the population connected to the Internet via broadband. Can anyone point me to any research on the impact of Internet use on Finnish society or politics or other aspects particular to Finland? I am especially interested in connections between Internet usage and further democratization of societies. Also, Ronda and I would very much like to meet or correspond with people on the AIR-L list in Finland who share our interests in the Internet, in the democratization process and netizens or in the history of science and technology, so we can learn more about the Finnish contribution to the Internet and to democratic practice. Kiitos Thanks. Best wishes. Jay

Internet Research 7.0: Internet Convergences
by Axel Bruns 15 May '06

15 May '06

AoIR Conference === Internet Research 7.0 === "Internet Convergences" Hilton Hotel, Brisbane, Australia === 27-30 September 2006 The Association of Internet Researchers is pleased to announce that registrations are now open for its 2006 conference, to be held at the Hilton Hotel in Brisbane, Australia, on 27-30 Sep. 2006. This major international conference takes place in the southern hemisphere for the first time. Themed 'Internet Convergences', the seventh annual AoIR conference will explore how the Internet acts in both converging and fragmenting ways - physical, cultural, technological, political, social - on local, regional, and global scales. Internationally, AoIR is the leading academic association dedicated to research and analysis of the Internet and related network technologies. Established in 2000, it has grown to become a key player in supporting Internet research and disseminating findings. A key reason for holding the conference outside of North America or Europe is to emphasise the international perspective of this global, networked organisation. The conference will feature keynote lectures by Professor Guo Liang, deputy director of the Center for Social Development in the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), and Professor John Hartley, Research Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence in Creative Industries and Innovation at Queensland University of Technology and Australia Research Council Federation Fellow. Conference delegates are also invited to attend a public lecture by Dr Merlyna Lim - this lecture is offered by the Centre for Asia Pacific Social Transformation Studies with support from the ARC Cultural Research Network and AoIR. Delegates are now able to register for the conference through the conference Website at http://conferences.aoir.org/. Conference registration also includes one year's membership of AoIR. In addition to conference registration itself, further registration options are available for the pre-conference workshops held on 27 Sep. 2006, the conference reception (free for all delegates), and the conference dinner. The IR7.0 conference hotel is the five-star Brisbane Hilton. There is heavily discounted conference accommodation available at the Hilton Hotel, starting from A$215/night (~ US$160). Please note that discounted rates are available through the Hilton Website during the conference period 27 Sep.-1 Oct. Should you wish to stay for longer, the Hilton is happy to make discounts available on request before and after this period. Please enter a booking for 27 Sep.-1 Oct. and indicate your extended stay in the booking comments - Hilton staff will endeavour to provide you with room discounts throughout your stay. Please see the Hilton's AoIR 2006 booking site at http://www.hilton.com/en/hi/groups/private_groups/bsbhitw_air for more details. We look forward to seeing you in Brisbane in September!
