Sorry if you do not have time for this just delete it. This is not directly about net research. Seems logical for me to ask at this point in this list's history for suggestions on what to read in terms of journals to prepare for a thesis but more so for a place to write. I find myself a member of AOIR and the Canadian Mathematics Society. My thesis is not officially started but my boss Leroy Stone a 30 year veteran of sociology wants me to look at the baby boom retiring and taking their operation knowledge out the door at our workplace. Right now I am doing a text search of some documents. My program is systems science, my back ground is in critical legal studies, statistics, geography and I have been reading since 1997 out from a core of QA76.9 social impact of computing studies through sociology of science and tech stopping in on hacking laws and reading about gender and computing. I have read many of the senior scholars on this list so would respect your advice. I am probably going to simulate my workplace either as workers moving around in and out or as knowledges in this case statistical knowledges moving in and out. any advice taken Peter Timusk B.Math(2002) BA (2006) Tel: 001-613-729-8328 Community Informatics Practitioner Email: ptimusk@sympatico.ca Yahoo ID: crystal_computing Skype ID: peter.timusk ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Nothing I write is intended to be representative of my employer, or our clients.
