Hello all, I'm hoping the AoIR crew might be able to help me on this quest. I'm trying to track down platform-specific research on fan communities online. I'm particularly looking for ethnographic studies of LiveJournal-based fan communities and production/communication networks in the early 2000s. However, it doesn't need to be fan specific. Any research on LiveJournal use in the early 2000s could potentially be helpful, particularly if its addressing collaborative work of the platform. If any of you have come across research on this topic, I'd really appreciate your input. I've been able to uncover a few pieces of research, but I'd really love to add to my reading list. Thank you for the help!
