Hi, It is just interesting that the words "Marx" and "Marxist critique" turn up on this list... Just something to observe - we are living in Marxian times, indeed... So we need Marxist Internet Studies. But what is Marxist Internet Studies? Best, Christian Am 11/6/12 4:51 AM, schrieb Jay Hauben:
Hi Adam,
I am not sure what makes something a Marxist critique. But in 2002 this paper was published in Science Studies, Vol. 15(2002) No.1, 61-68:
"Commodifying Usenet and the Usenet Archive or Continuing the Online Cooperative Usenet Culture?" by Ronda Hauben

Take care.

Anybody know of any Marxist critiques of online advertising? Anything looking at Pagerank and YouTube advertising through the frames of monopolisation, commodification, and accumulation?
Des Freedman has an excellent starting point in Web 2.0 and the Death of the Blockbuster Economy in Misunderstanding the Internet. Anything else?
Thanks.
