With this mail I forward it to our brand new mailing list "re-search" (you can register here, if you like: bit.ly/Iprbtb). It?s certainly and interesting book although the price is crazy. I was briefly in touch with Dirk Lewandowski and I will probably meet him this month. I will also invite him to our mailing list. I am very curious about the approaches in this book and I will certainly get it somehow.

It was a great gathering - almost a mini conference - with excellent Austrian and international speakers. The video archive is here for those interested (in German though): http://bambuser.com/v/2585579 - the program could be found here: http://www.univie.ac.at/internetforschung/2012/04/themenabend-black-box-suchmaschine-25-4-2012-18-30-mq-raum-d/ 2) the 4th ICTs and society conference in Uppsala having focused on Critical Theory and New Media developments.. including issues such as the political economy of search/ social media, surveillance, privacy issues etc., but also counter tactics, social movements, Occupy etc. It was a truly critical and hence interesting conference with renowned keynote speakers and interesting panel discussions - a review could be found on my blog: http://www.astridmager.net/?p=2012 3) our network Internet Research is organizing seminars, lectures, workshops etc. on new media & society on a regular basis.. that might be interesting for those living/ working in or near Vienna. That's our blog: http://internetforschung.univie.ac.at/ I'm already looking forward to further contributions to the list! All the best for now, Astrid Am 02.05.2012 14:36, schrieb Ren?
