I’m still struggling to make my preferred choice on a suitable online community for the virtual ethnographic study.
Somehow I am torn between a safe, professional but boring community of which I am a member or some more esoteric communities of more disparate nature. From the latter sort I had a look a richarddawkins.net yesterday and some xfiles-related Web-sites today. Overall the former whilst highly interesting, engaging and interactive seems to be serving mainly as a cult platform for the man himself (and his books) the latter sites were all far to commercial filled with marketing.
As I am now running out of time I guess I have to stick with one of the Ning sites of which I am a member of.
A little gem from one of these sites  is a simple video called ‘The class of 2024‘ – a simple storytelling motif.
