Here are some of the ideas that I will be presenting in class:
-what are virtual communities? when and why did they start?
-brief overview of the internet and the different communities that formed in the early years of the internet? Getting at the notion of why did we form 'virtual communities?'
-the idea of the virtual is not a new concept just the medium in which it is represented has changed.
-examining McLuhan's medium theory and the idea that 'medium is the message' in correlation to the digital age/internet.
