Hi, I am wondering if anyone needs a roommate for ICA? I am a graduate student at CMU, I am nice and I have the coveted ability to sleep through a brass band marching by (so you don't have to worry about being quiet). I am arriving on the 18th and leaving on the 24th. I was traveling for the last month and just found out that accommodations I was supposed to have aren't going to work out. Please help, Thanks!

Re: [Air-l] allocution, consultation, conversion and registration on the internet
by Heidelberg, Chris 26 May '06

Can you give me full citation of Bordewijk & Van Kaam (1982) and Van Dyk as well. I am creating a training module for a national government Internet team. I am trying to explain this change as being driven in part by convergence and sociology. I may also use it in my dissertation. -----Original Message----- From: air-l-bounces(a)listserv.aoir.org [mailto:air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org] On Behalf Of Opgenhaffen Michaël Sent: Friday, May 26, 2006 8:25 AM To: air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org; aoir list Subject: [Air-l] allocution, consultation,conversion and registration on the internet Doing research about communication online, the model of information-flow of Bordewijk & Van Kaam (1982) (Van Dyk has based his model on this one) seems to be very popular to show the change of the communication pattern from allocution to consultation and conversation. So far, I'm in. My question is for those who know this model well: what's the exact definition of the 'registration' pattern and could you give an example? Is RSS or google-alerts an example of registration? Thanx for the help in advance!

AOIR on AUT
by Derek McMillan 26 May '06

26 May '06

LOL. I am amused by the idea that supporting AUT would be political but opposing them is OK because it is non-political. This is doubleplusungood doublethink isn't it. FWIW I support AUT.There is an advert on British TV to encourage people to vote It says "If you don't do politics, you don't do anything." and suggests that if you are interested in the world around you then you are de facto interested in politics. I favour a boycott of Israel, not because of its effect of otherwise on the brutal oppression of the Palestinians but because we do not have to be accomplices in that brutal oppression and a boycott is a non-violent civilised way to express that. You have only to listen to the intemperate language with which the Israeli right has responded - rejecting AUT as irrelevant and in the same breath denouncing them as terrorists - to see that it is having an effect. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
