Abigail, This might be a slight tangent to time on the internet - the article below is about "waiting for services on the internet". I found it to be interesting because, from a user's perspective, it looks at time spent waiting both online and when not online (e.g. total time spent waiting for an email message or the delivery of something ordered online). Ryan, G. & Valverde, M. (2005). Waiting for service on the internet: Defining the phenomenon and identifying the situations. Internet Research: Electronic Networking Applications and Policy; 15 (2): 220-240. If you find the this article interesting, there is a review paper on waiting on the internet written by the same authors: Ryan, G. & Valverde, M. (2003). Internet; Waiting; Downloading; User behaviour Waiting online: a review and research agenda. Internet Research: Electronic Networking Applications; 13 (3): 195-205.

Sarah, I am interested in the experience of time among users, but also in the effects of the internet on time more broadly. Paul Virilio does seem the obvious choice but surely there are others? Abi

Abigail: "Time" in what respect? perceptions of passing time? immediacy? please explain. Sarah

Hi all, I am writing about the internet and its effects on time. I was wondering if anyone could suggest some readings on this topic?
