Dear AIR-ers - I have tried to isolate a seminal text on communication theory as it relates to the formation of virtual communities - and failed! I have read broadly in communication, cyberculture (particularly from the titles included in the cyberculture canon list that went around recently) and anthropology, sociology, education. Clearly I am missing the forest for the trees and I am hoping for some light. Thanks, Denise ===== "Stupidity is not just a lack of content; it's also a process" Denise N.
