Hi,
I'm in the midst of starting a paper on the history of innovation. I'm interested how new technologies are accepted, incorporated, rejected, or killed and how they are agents of transformation (I'm aware of the work of Elizabeth Eisenstein) - basically I will do research on the language and the concepts that are used/created. I'm especially interested in internet technologies and webpublishing technologies (... social software).
Now I wonder if you could point me to some relevant literature on that topic that could help me to jumpstart into my research.
Thanks for your help
Thomas
