Becky: Good idea; I second your proposal. There is a much more modest initiative in the same direction. The journal Javnost/The Public publishes extended abstracts (ca. 1000 words) of recent PhD dissertations related to communication and culture. Both David Silver's and Keith Hampton's dissertations appeared in previous issues. Persons who have recently completed dissertations are encouraged to contact me regarding possible inclusion in this series.

May I suggest to the list owners that AOIR consider establishing a

moderated/edited link (members submit blurbettes to the person(s)

responsible for keeping this updated/fresh) from the main AOIR web page for

recent dissertations, publications, etc. from AOIR members in some sort of

categorized arrangement? Somewhat like David's cyberculture book reviews

service, i.e., an alert about new stuff, but a link not the reviews to the

list, etc? I think the most recent post by Professor Hampton was

interesting, but it made me think that there might be many other list

members with interesting work to share who may be a bit more shy about

announcing it? This might also be a way to reduce the volume of postings --

this is becoming a high volume list. Just a suggestion. RG Lentz, UT/Austin.
