Life Online by Annette N Markham
In this text, Annette Markham adopts an ethnographic approach to understanding Internet users by immersing herself in online reality. She finds that to understand how people experience the Internet, she must learn how to be embodied there.
Markham has written a definitive sociological study of what it's like to be on the NetMarkham's ability to relate and mine her own experiences along with those of others online makes for a compelling read. The book will set a standard for the successful mixture of ethnography and autobiography, critical reflection and description among studies of the Internet. -- Steven G. Jones, (University of Tulsa)
