Re:
'Internationalizing Internet Studies'
Call for papers for a edited collection by Gerard Goggin (University of Sydney) & Mark McLelland (University of Wollongong)
<snip>
On the occasion of this interesting and important announcement, let me comment that many of the important issues and themes to be addressed in this anthology are at the heart of the biennial conferences on "Cultural Attitudes towards Technology and Communication" (CATaC) and related publications (e.g., the most recent special issue of the Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication). Scholars and researchers interested in those issues and themes may find CATaC'06 - coming up this June 27-July 1, in Tartu, Estonia - to be a useful and enjoyable venue for exploring their ideas and insights with colleagues and cohorts who share these interests. On behalf of my co-chair, Fay Sudweeks, I cordially invite those interested in these topics to review the CFP for CATaC'06 and related materials on our conference website - www.catacconference.org - and to consider submitting a proposal for presentation and/or attending the conference to glean and discuss with colleagues both formally and informally some of the best and most current research and scholarship in these domains.
