Now Ayden Ferdeline is reflecting on the papers. Appreciated how they all address the agenda setting dynamics in #netgov. Offers some pointed feedback to each presentation. I won't summarize it here, but one meta-theme is a call to venture beyond the obvious spaces/communities. Something van Eeten and Mueller have called a while ago.

Since I just moved here from a different server, I thought I should make an #introduction. I study the intersection of information, technology, policy, and society. My current projects focus on #netGov, #privacy, #cybersecurity., and #digitalDivide. Here to learn from others.
