Hello all, My research involves Africa and the Internet. I've scoured many a journal, looking for research on the subject, but haven't come up with much. And, most of the studies that I have seen look at policy or IT infrastructure, such as the new book: "Beyond Boundaries: Cyberspace in Africa", by Melinda Robins and Robert Hilliard (2002). Portsmouth, NH: Heinemann. Any suggestions regarding African Internet research that I may be missing? -Robert
