[AoIR HQ] Legacy Lecture Series Announcement - A Roundtable on Methods
AoIR is happy to announce the first roundtable in our lecture series: Methods: How Internet Research Has Evolved. When: 13 Apr 2026 @ 18:00 - 19:30 (CEST) Location: Zoom - Link provided upon registration. We bring together long-standing AoIR members Annette N. Markham, Bernhard Rieder, and Axel Bruns for a roundtable exploring how Internet research methods have evolved over time. The session examines key shifts in research practices—from the rise and restriction of platform APIs and digital trace data, to the emergence of AI-driven computational approaches, and the growing importance of ethical and human-centered inquiry. Together, the speakers will reflect on the problems and possibilities shaping the current methodological landscape, asking what the *regeneration* of methods might mean for the future of Internet research. The lecture will be 45 minutes long with 45 minutes of Q&A and discussion with the audience. Learn more here!
