An examination of Internet culture and consumption. The Internet is increasingly shaping, and being shaped by, users' lives. From cybercafes to businesses, from middle class houses to squatters settlements, the authors have gathered material on subjects as varied as personal relations, commerce, sex and religion. Websites are also analyzed as new cultural formations acting as aesthetic traps. At every point, email chat and surfing are found to be exploited in ways that bring out both unforeseen attributes of the Internet and the contradictions of modern life. The material, taken from ethnographic work in Trinidad, adds depth to earlier discussions about the Internet as an expansion of space, the changes it effects to time and personhood, and the new political economy of the information age. A tie-in with the book's own website provides further illustrations.

民族志的方法,常常被用于研究“异文化”里的宗族关系、语言、宗教等问题,其实也能够帮助我们理解当下的社会,也能用于对新媒体使用的研究。Inspiring methodological insight with excellent writing.

评分同作者还有我老师don slater谢谢 哼
评分这本书写的很好。Miller研究了Trinidadian,我觉得他在方法论论证的部分很好,对我来说很受用。很多学者习惯于将Cyberspace和Reality切分,这本书则证明二者是相连的。
