Dear colleagues - I remember a vague promise to send some material on the domestication of technology, especially in the Scandanavian literature. I believe the material that I was orginally looking for is contained in Silverstone, R. and E. Hirsch, Eds. (1992). Consuming technologies: Media and information in domestic spaces. London, Routledge. Which is a bit old. I can refer any of you interested to the following book: Green, E. and A. Adam, Eds. (2001). Virtual Gender: Technology, consumption and identity. London, Routledge. The References in the back (too many to type out here) give a pretty good overview of this material.
