Participatory Culture in a Networked Era: A Conversation on Youth, Learning, Commerce, and Politics by Mizuko Ito, Henry Jenkins, Danah Boyd
4.0
Conversational and accessible, almost as if the reader were on a couch overhearing a trialogue between close friends who care deeply about both the Internet and about society, especially for those left behind by cultural or economic progression. Much food for thought here, particularly for those readers who have been steeped in the Internet growing up and for whom the structural biases inherent in the technology are almost invisible.
Or, to put it another way:
Imagine if the Internet felt like a foreign land to you.
What would that be like? How would that change how you use it... how you participate in online culture?
This book addresses that, because the Internet _does_ feel like a foreign country to many, many people, and, well, if it's truly meant to be the network for everyone, that shouldn't be the case.
