Thanks for that site, Danah. I'm wondering if anyone's working on the topic of or knows anything about Social Networking and young children. I mean under the age of 8-10, in this case. I have found some sites (I'm writing on Anme's Diary at the moment), but there are obviously not a lot of them. I'd like to hear from anyone who's interested in this area.

I maintain a list of all research that I know on social network sites (both in the US and abroad) here: http://www.danah.org/ SNSResearch.html
Not all of it is on youth but a bunch of it is.

Could anyone recommend must-read studies that look at young people's use of social networking sites in America and globally?
