Research Abstract |
This research aims to develop a qualitative approach to the study of people's activities on and via the information network. There are challenges to conduct such "cyber ethnography." In order to meet them, this research has developed a well-formulated ethnographic procedure based on mixed methods approach. Then, such cyber-ethnographic researches have revealed that online diaries and blogs are intertwined with mobile communications, embedded in the communicative ecology related to each other.
