Uh uh it does.

Have you ever read Giddens and Structuration theory - this fits in right here, I think.. as well as communities of practice...

Sometimes I really, really miss academia...

I haven't - although now, of course, I am thinking maybe I should have. Damn it - must finish corrections before thinking about expanding. :-)

What is the reference? Just, by the by.

You really really should be puting a paper in for this http://www.law.ed.ac.uk/ahrc/gikii.aspx

Um..500 word or less abstract to me by July 15. Last year's ppts are mostly up at the URL in the CFP. That's it! No conf fee, you might have to pay for dinner but i hope not. Do you eant to pass it round any other people in ECS?

Pass what? The abstract or the conference info?

Or, in fact, making the sets "people whose posts I wish to have aggregated into my 'friends page'" and "people who are authorised to see my 'friends-only' posts" the same.

Basically, LiveJournal is an astoundingly bad system, and is only worth using for the people on it. FACT.
