A friend of mine from Salzburg University, Austria sent me the following email with this request. If any of you can ahelp please contact me or her - Regina Kainz. All the best Diana Andone I have been given the special opportunity to lecture a 1-term workshop on gender + it at a department of business-computer science (the german term is: Wirtschaftsinformatik). Therefore I am looking for papers, books, etc. that deal with gender+it and aspects of marketing, hci/usability. theories on media usage (reception) has been individualizing the user, whereas market research neatly groups users together. what do we know, when we hear that there is a new 'metro-sexual' men? also of interests are theories and empirical data on how girls/boys, male/female teenagers, etc. differently use computers, the internet, computer-games, etc. -- Diana Andone Director - Teleuniversitatea TV Multimedia lecturer - "Politehnica" University of Timisoara Bul.
