Editor's Notes

  1. Paper presented at AoIR in Vancouver October 2007; Full paper to be published in _Information, Communication & Society_ next March Small case study collaboration of Ralph and me: Ralph had been working on Pynchon, Weber in Pynchon, before I have been working on Wikis This seemed to be an opportune moment to bring our expertise together.
