Meanwhile, I'm trying to finish my email! Apologies for the earlier, unfinished draft. Here's what I meant to write:
Dear AOIR-ers,
A PhD student in my department is currently trying to finish his thesis on migrants' use if Facebook, with a particular focus on how they construct their identities. If you know of any interesting work in this area, I'd be grateful of you could let me know either off-list or on. We'll collate any responses and circulate in due course.
Many thanks, Johnny
