Lois, This highlights another problem, with radio and television it was relatively easy to identify technological stabilization; in internet time (whatever that is?) will it ever be possible to identify technological stabilization? I don't know the answer, but with the speed of adoption, perhaps we have to think of new metrics? Martin. On 8/22/07, Lois Ann Scheidt <lscheidt@indiana.edu> wrote:
That is a very interesting question Martin, but it does implies a level of technological stabilization that we have yet to see. When I started watching teens online, pre-PhD studies, most were in chatrooms/MUDs/MOOs. When IMs developed and improved they added that stream to the technological grab bag.
