Greg, I enjoyed Naomi Baron's Always On: Language in an Online and Mobile World. She has intriguing research/discussion on the effects new technologies are having on our communications and relationships.

She's looked to the usual sources (such as danah boyd's work and online bibliography, PEW studies, etc.) but isn't finding much beyond that. There's tons of stuff about what people do on these sites (identity construction, relationships, etc.), and broader social and cultural implications (community, democracy), but few teasing out the everyday practice. Does that make sense? Any ideas? Cheers, Greg Dr. J.
