At the Web-Based Communities conference



I arrived in San Sebastian, Spain on Saturday, February 25 at night. The conference started yesterday, there were some interesting presentations and speakers. There was a speaker called Cliff Figgalo from SociAlchemy who worked with Howard Rheingold and Stuart Brandt and were the incarnators of the WELL, a BBS type of electronic system that was considered the first electronic virtual community. I recorded some of the presentations, and took down notes. It will take me some time to process them on this blog here, but I will definitely put them up!

Today, I'm giving my presentation on "Finding Evidence of Community Through Blogging Co-citations: A Social Network Analytic Approach". I'm going to podcast it and then put it online here, so others can have a listen as to what my research is about.

Meanwhile, here are some photos of the conference and the city of San Sebastian for your enjoyment!

Oh yes, it´s great, it´s kind of chilly though, but the food was good though. You´ll see the pictures that I´ll post when I have the time to put them up. Then you´ll see how much fun I had :)
