Is the paper for publication, and if so what venue, or for a term paper, and if so what level? As others have said -- LOTS out there, starting with Tim OReilly's writings when he coined the term (or at least is attributed as having coined it). Can someone confirm who used the term first. /C ---- Original message ---- >Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2007 15:30:51 +0100 >From: "Martin Garthwaite" <marting(a)gmail.com> >Subject: Re: [Air-l] Journal or conference articles on web 2.0 >To: air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org > >I intended to be specifically vague (-: > >I'm writing a paper on What web 2.0 is and why do we care? > >Hope that helps? > >Martin. > >On 4/19/07, Ellie Wix <elliewix(a)gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Just to throw one out that I'm interested in, how about social >> organization?

A Crystal Ball
by James Whyte 19 Apr '07

19 Apr '07

I was given a Physics textbook that is 99 years old. In looking at the discussion of the electrical potential of gasses, I realized how much the science of electricity has changed in the interim. It raises the question about the history of the Internet in the post creation era. Here are the questions. 100 years from now what will scholars be writing about the current literature and studies? What will the state of science be? What will be folklore and what will be the state of formal knowledge? If you comment, please speculate as an informed scholar. (on-list or off-list).

Re: [Air-l] Our VT colleagues
by William Bain 19 Apr '07

19 Apr '07

The real tragedy is to assume that as an association and as individuals we can do nothing to affect the root causes of events like those at Virginia Tech. I know that AOIR promotes social participation and understanding among people in general. And I feel sure that colleagues on this list are at work on many of the psychological aspects underlying violent behavior. But obviously its not always enough to depend on that, even if you felt like everything possible were being done, which probably no one here does. Personally, I am not up to date on studies of rampant violence and related causes and Id welcome information on things. something like expert opinion on approaches that hold new promise.

For those of us who have blogs and personal webpages.. it might be a nice gesture to change our background and banner colors to chicago maroon (810541) and burnt orange (CC5500) for Friday and the weekend. Many people have been leveraging the social power of Web the last two days.. and this would be one more (albeit small) way to encourage some reflection on this tragedy.
