Connections

[mcfnord]

Welcome to weblogsociology! This community examines the sociology of online journals.

• Are online journals or "web logs" a microcosm of real life? How do you choose online friends, vs. real life?
• Is your journal "friends only" and if so, why?
• Are you part of a tight-knit "circle of friends"? If so, what do you all have in common? Are you in the same city? Do you share the same interests? Does something else unite you?
• How important are user icons in how people perceive you?
• Are you nervous about commenting in other people's journals?

This is the place to discuss the sociology of online journals. Remember, there are no right answers to these questions. This is a place to explore the fascinating dynamics of online communities and friendships.
