[CITASA] Mapping Cyberscapes: Where Place and Cyberspace meet

[Matthew Zook]

Hello,

 

In the spirit of shameless self-promotion I invite AOIR  members to visit
our blog <http://www.floatingsheep.org/>  dedicated to mapping and analyzing
user generated information about places.  The results provide one glimpse of
what the "internet" knows about particular places. 

The data/maps are part of a larger academic research project and the blog
provides an informal means of distributing some of the findings.

 


Religious
<http://www.floatingsheep.org/2009/12/user-created-geographies-of-religion.h
tml>  practice around the world

There will be between 2-3 new posting a week at the FloatingSheep.org blog
<http://www.floatingsheep.org/>  so please subscribe via email, twitter
(@floating_sheep), or Atom feed.  

 

We would also greatly appreciate if you could forward this on to anyone you
think would be interested.  Thanks!

 

All comments and critiques are welcome.
