Logged On but Disaffected? Young People, Citizenship and ICTs Symposium
Apologies for Cross-Posting Logged On but Disaffected? Young People, Citizenship and ICTs A symposium to be held at Wentworth College, University of York, York, UK 26th -27th September 2005 Sponsored by Community Informatics Research & Applications (CIRA) University of Teesside, UK. & Department of Sociology, University of York This two day symposium brings together a number of leading scholars, policy practitioners and activists who are involved in the study and adoption of ICTs as a means to facilitate the active engagement of young people in democratic governance. The symposium aims to address such questions as: * How can ICTs be best used to facilitate active participation by young people in democratic politics? * Can ICTs become a part of citizenship education curriculum? * What kinds of online interaction facilitate effective deliberation between young people? * What kinds of ICTs are most likely to engage the hard-to-reach groups of disaffected young people? * How can ICTs enable genuine respect and involvement of young people in national and local decision-making? * Do ICTs make participation more difficult? There are a few places still available at the symposium for delegates.

Hi Air-ers - Uh well looking for a needle in a haystack. I've got plenty of information on internet domains from the technical side of it. Really looking for something that speaks more figuratively to the domain as a place where things happen online. Vague now, and getting even vaguer as time goes on, Denise P.S. Maybe 10 days from finishing the thesis but who's counting? DNR Denise N. Rall, PhD candidate, School of Environ.

Hi. I am looking for some literature to compare traditional web pages with web logs in terms of publishers and functions. Some might say web logs are also web pages. However, I think the differences between them are more than just technical differences. Thanks. Jenghoon Lee

see, especially Herring, S. C., Scheidt, L. A., Bonus, S., and Wright, E. (2005). Weblogs as a bridging genre. Information, Technology & People, 18(2), 142-171. Preprint pdf available at: http://www.blogninja.com/it&p.final.pdf we'd be delighted to correspond with you w.r.t. the genre aspects in particular. enjoy! --elijah
Ok I had the paper in my database all along: Dahlberg, I. (1994). Domain Interaction: Theory and Practice. Advances in Knowledge Organization, 4(60-71). for those who need to know. Thanks to all academics taking a lead on the New Orleans situation. Not much to do from here but hope there's not another tsunami. Cheers, Denise Denise N. Rall, PhD candidate, School of Environ.
