Members of AoIR-- I have a request for resources. I am a PhD student in technical communication and rhetoric and will be conducting my dissertation research in order to respond to the following question: "How do cultural factors affect the international online communication that supports today's virtual office systems?" I am speaking specifically of communication across international cultures using online tools such as email, instant messaging, discussion boards, etc. In other words, I'm focusing on two-way communication. Now to the question--I have an extensive reading list which I won't attempt to list here, but I am anxious not to miss any important resources on methodology and content. If you have any suggestions for "don't miss" resources, would you please share them with me? I appreciate your help very much.
