Deep thoughts about cyberanthropology, anthropology and sociology, including shallow thoughts, scribbles and doodles about teaching, learning, research, academe, the Internet and life in general.
About Me
- Name:Denise Carter
- Location:United Kingdom
My name is Denise Maia Carter and I have recently completed my PhD in Social Anthropology at the University of Hull, UK. My particular interests are in the transformative effects of the Internet and its increasing embeddedness in everyday lives. My doctoral research is an ethnographic account of my three years living and working in a virtual community. This research, among other things looks at friendship and community, new theories of space and place, the ways in which the challenges of online ethnography informs contemporary ethnographic practices and the writing of postmodern ethnography.

"Instead we use the Internet to change the ways we do things."
Not sure if I fully agree here. What do you thibnk about: Internetuse is a representation of things that have changed ?
I had quite a discussion about just this issue at http://www.antropologi.info/blog/anthropology/anthropology.php?p=1844&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
What was really a throw away line turned out to be problematic - perhaps you could read the discussion there and then make another comment - love to hear fom you.
