Has anyone come across research on *lurking*? I'm looking for any pertinent articles. Any suggestions?
There were a couple of papers talking about lurking in last Augest's AMCIS conference. You may find them from: http://aisel.isworld.org/article_all.asp?Publication_ID=14. For example: Why Lurkers Lurk Blair Nonnecke, Maptuit Corporation Jenny Preece, University of Maryland, Baltimore County We also had a paper in that conference, but it was not focused on lurking, but on peripheral members, i.e., members who seldom participate. Let me know if you are interested and I will send you an electronic copy.
