Hello, we designed and implemented a browser plugin based infrastructure with which volunteers can share their data stream with us when they visit certain websites, including social media. currently 400+ participants from a social science research panel already donated 16000 days worth of data. we've written up the design and the challenges here: Tackling the Algorithmic Control Crisis—the Technical, Legal, and Ethical Challenges of Research into Algorithmic Agents B. Bodo, et al. 19 Yale J.L. & Tech. 133 http://yjolt.org/sites/default/files/bodoetal_0.pdf get in touch if you are interested setting up the infrastructure for your study.

Mike Michael and I have done some work using design/cultural probes and hands-on activities to investigate public understandings of personal digital dataveilance. I am having a lot of fun at the moment experimenting with design sociology methods.

Greetings all;
I am looking for research methodologies to study things like data flow lines, systems, platforms, following data trails, IoT and data, etc.
Things like:
- Applied theory - Walkthrough methods - Ethnographic (of systems/orgs/platforms but not of social media) - and etc.
We have lots of great theory, but hard to find some research methods. Any intel would be most helpful.
At the moment it is about looking at utility and transportation grids and meters and sensors in a smart city context. But it could also be something similar in a precision agriculture context.
