Rheingold’s study: An early online community
(Whole Earth ’Lectronic Link)
At this time, geography still played an important role because of BBSes (local telephone access)
Less use of pseudonyms (identity persistence) Less initial distrust Socioeconomic skew?

Virtual communities are social aggregations that emerge from the Net when enough people carry on those public discussions long enough, with sufficient human feeling, to form webs of personal relationships in cyberspace.
Howard Rheingold, The Virtual Community
![Page 9: Coye Cheshire & Andrew Fiore November 15, 2015 // Computer-Mediated Communication Community, Science, and CMC](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022032107/56649f275503460f94c3e3e5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Social networks

But does CMC change lives?
That is, does technology change people?Change society? What is this point of view called?
What’s the role of adaptation?

How do we know if the promise is being fulfilled?
How is Internet use related to general social interaction?
How does offline interaction relate to online interaction?
