Dear Burcu, For a more critical perspective on the cultural industries behind the social networking sites, have a look at the March 2008 special issue of the online journal First Monday. See http://www.uic.edu/htbin/cgiwrap/bin/ojs/index.php/fm/issue/view/263/showToc Also the article by Jose van Dijck & Nieborg elaborates on this topic: Wikinomics and its discontents: a critical analysis of Web 2.0 business manifestos. http://www.gamespace.nl/content/Wikinomics_and_its_discontents_2009.pdf Hope this is helpful, Koen.

Along with my First Monday special issue on "Critical Perspectives of Web 2.0" noted below (thanks), you'll want to look at the recent conference on "The Internet as Playground and Factory" organized by Trebor Scholz. http://digitallabor.org/ The website includes the impressive list of participants, as well as links to videos, mailing list discussions, etc. -michael -- Michael Zimmer, PhD Assistant Professor, School of Information Studies Associate, Center for Information Policy Research University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee e: zimmerm@uwm.edu w: www.michaelzimmer.org On Dec 4, 2009, at 9:05 AM, Leurs, K.H.A.
