Psychology of cyberspace

John R. Suler, Professor of Psychology at the Department of Psychology of Rider University conducted several years of participant observation in an online-community called The Palace. Suler wrote several articles stemming from his research and glued them together as a book, which is completely published online as The Psychology of Cyberspace. Of special interest to the social/cultural anthropologist is his chapter on participant observation (One of us: Participant observation research), which is written from the vantage point of a clinical psychologist. The whole book and the accompanying websites are very worthwhile to read, and for those who mainly are interested in ICT as a tool for the scientist, Suler gives advice on copyright and citation issues and thinks about academic publishing online.

Map of the Internet

The Opte project "was created to make a visual representation of a space that is very much one-dimensional, a metaphysical universe. The data represented and collected here serves a multitude of purposes: Modeling the Internet, analyzing wasted IP space, IP space distribution, detecting the result of natural disasters, weather, war, and esthetics/art. This project is free and represents a lot of donated time, please enjoy." While reading a discussion at slashdot about this, I stumbled over the IP Address Locator Tool -- finally a means for online-researchers to correlate the members of 'their cyberian tribes' to geographic space. I wonder how this goes with ethics and online research. via infocult
