Daily life is connected life, its rhythms driven by endless email pings and responses, the chimes and beeps of continually arriving text messages, tweets and retweets, Facebook updates, pictures and ...videos to post and discuss. Our perpetual connectedness gives us endless opportunities to be part of the give-and-take of networking. Some worry that this new environment makes us isolated and lonely. But in Networked , Lee Rainie and Barry Wellman show how the large, loosely knit social circles of networked individuals expand opportunities for learning, problem solving, decision making, and personal interaction. The new social operating system of "networked individualism" liberates us from the restrictions of tightly knit groups; it also requires us to develop networking skills and strategies, work on maintaining ties, and balance multiple overlapping networks. Rainie and Wellman outline the "triple revolution" that has brought on this transformation: the rise of social networking, the capacity of the Internet to empower individuals, and the always-on connectivity of mobile devices. Drawing on extensive evidence, they examine how the move to networked individualism has expanded personal relationships beyond households and neighborhoods; transformed work into less hierarchical, more team-driven enterprises; encouraged individuals to create and share content; and changed the way people obtain information. Rainie and Wellman guide us through the challenges and opportunities of living in the evolving world of networked individuals.

In Digital Methods , Richard Rogers proposes a methodological outlook for social and cultural scholarly research on the Web that seeks to move Internet research beyond the study of online culture. It ...is not a toolkit for Internet research, or operating instructions for a software package; it deals with broader questions. How can we study social media to learn something about society rather than about social media use? How can hyperlinks reveal not just the value of a Web site but the politics of association? Rogers proposes repurposing Web-native techniques for research into cultural change and societal conditions. We can learn to reapply such "methods of the medium" as crawling and crowd sourcing, PageRank and similar algorithms, tag clouds and other visualizations; we can learn how they handle hits, likes, tags, date stamps, and other Web-native objects. By "thinking along" with devices and the objects they handle, digital research methods can follow the evolving methods of the medium. Rogers uses this new methodological outlook to examine the findings of inquiries into 9/11 search results, the recognition of climate change skeptics by climate-change-related Web sites, the events surrounding the Srebrenica massacre according to Dutch, Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian Wikipedias, presidential candidates' social media "friends," and the censorship of the Iranian Web. With Digital Methods , Rogers introduces a new vision and method for Internet research and at the same time applies them to the Web's objects of study, from tiny particles (hyperlinks) to large masses (social media).

This study aims to investigate the impacts of renewable energy consumption, internet usage, mineral rent, and economic growth on CO2 emissions across 27 OECD nations between 2001 and 2020. We employ ...a panel quantile regression technique to discover the heterogeneous effects of these variables for the various quantile levels of environmental destruction. The panel quantile regression approach found the Environmental Kuznets curve dominated countries in which CO2 emissions were low. Additionally, the negative relationship between renewable energy consumption and CO2 emissions yielded in the paper suggests the potential benefits of incentivizing and investing in renewable sources. Internet usage demonstrates a negative impact on CO2 emissions, showcasing the role of digital technologies in promoting sustainability. Accordingly, internet use improves environmental quality due to more efficient, sustainable, and eco-friendly practices, which increase productivity. However, a positive association between mineral rents and environmental deterioration emphasizes the necessity of strategic policies to balance economic benefits with environmental preservation. Our study provides policymakers with valuable insights into tailoring effective strategies for sustainable development, renewable energy adoption, digitalization, and natural resource utilization while addressing environmental degradation.

Viele Behörden sind inzwischen zur Verwendung von Leichter Sprache auf ihren Internetseiten verpflichtet. Das Ziel ist die Verbesserung der Teilhabe von Menschen mit Behinderung. Doch sind die ...gesetzlichen Vorgaben und die daraus entstandene Textpraxis aus Sicht der Barrierefreien Kommunikation dazu geeignet, dieses Ziel zu erreichen? Zur Beantwortung dieser Frage nimmt Katrin Lang die in der Forschung bislang wenig thematisierten Kategorien „Auffindbarkeit“, „Wahrnehmbarkeit“ und „Akzeptabilität“ in den Blick. Sie zeigt, warum viele Texte, die auf der Grundlage des Behindertengleichstellungsgesetzes und der Barrierefreie-Informationstechnik-Verordnung (BITV) entstanden sind, Mängel im Bereich der Akzeptabilität aufweisen und eine sogenannte „Motivationsbarriere“ enthalten. Darüber hinaus erklärt Lang, wie es gelingen kann, behördliche Webseiten auf Bundes-, Landes- und kommunaler Ebene für Menschen mit Kommunikationseinschränkungen nicht nur auffindbar, wahrnehmbar und verständlich, sondern auch akzeptabel und handlungsleitend zu gestalten.
Katrin Lang, Dr. phil., ist Expertin für barrierefreie Onlinekommunikation von Behörden. Nach ihrem Studium der Übersetzungswissenschaft (BA) sowie im Studiengang Medientext und Medienübersetzung mit dem Schwerpunkt Barrierefreie Kommunikation (MA) an der Universität Hildesheim war sie Mitarbeiterin an der Forschungsstelle Leichte Sprache sowie Referentin in der Gesetzesredaktion und Sprachberatung im Bundesministerium der Justiz und für Verbraucherschutz. Sie ist Onlineredakteurin im Dudenverlag und engagiert sich für die Initiative #BarrierefreiPosten.
This study investigates the role of both cultural and technological factors in determining audience formation on a global scale. It integrates theories of media choice with theories of global ...cultural consumption and tests them by analyzing shared audience traffic between the world's 1,000 most popular websites. We find that language and geographic similarities are more powerful predictors of audience overlap than hyperlinks and genre similarity, highlighting the role of cultural structures in shaping global media use.
Loopedia is a new database at loopedia.org for information on Feynman integrals, intended to provide both bibliographic information as well as results made available by the community. Its bibliometry ...is complementary to that of Inspire or arXiv in the sense that it admits searching for integrals by graph-theoretical objects, e.g. its topology.
