Not to bash on you specifically, but just because I don't understand autoethnography... What does "autoethnographic report" mean, and what would be its value? The name alone sounds weak and unimportant. How would one be evaluated? I can perhaps understand it as one "method" in conjunction with others (such as listed by Radhika's advisee). But what does it mean on its own, and what's the point? -eg

Dear Air-l list,
A month ago I've started work on my dissertation for the Communications and Multi-Media Design course I'm following. So far it has seen many proposed questions but I've decided on writing an autoethnographic report on my experiences with the Internet and virtual communities as well as blogging and how starting that blog shaped my research.
The question I would like to ask you all is the following: are there any published works out there that connect with my dissertation or any that I may read for inspiration and/or guidance.
Many thanks, Chana Hermans
