Monuments of cyberspace: Designing the Internet beyond the network framework

Abstract

In light of the challenges entailed by the (re)design of the Internet, this paper develops the concept of “monuments of cyberspace”, to address the lack of clarity in current debates and more particularly in the use of the conceptual frameworks of “networks” and “communities”. To do so, I revisit the conceptual grounds of network approaches in different disciplines and those of communities of practice, using as an entry point the debate on personal data. To illustrate the value of the concept introduced, the article reviews the design of the “datagram” and that of an online communication setting for developers.

Empathy in the Business Model: How Facebook and Google Maps Manage External Problem-Solving Processes

“…To this end, we use evidence provided by the data of the two forums. The analysis of data coming from online settings has become a common practice, especially in field of software development, where the traces of online collaboration are available to harness (Chrysos, 2016;Conaldi and Lomi, 2013;Nan and Kumar, 2013).…”

“…To collect the data, we will make use of the traces left online by the problem-solving process (Chrysos, 2016;Conaldi and Lomi, 2013;Nan and Kumar, 2013). The data is downloaded from the two forums and is examined for a period of six months.…”

“…To intensify data gathering inside the focal concept (von Krogh et al, 2012) of problem-solving to test the relevance of the problem-solving framework to this particular phenomenon, we use the data available by the online settings (Chrysos, 2016;Conaldi and Lomi, 2013;Nan and Kumar, 2013) in a CSV (Comma Separated Values) format. The data contains a full account of all issues and problems reported during the examined period, along with their status at the end of the period (i.e.…”

What makes a good monument?: Theoretical starting points to the heritological interpretation of commemorative values in the city space

“…Миленијумска грозница распршила је те визије (или илузије). Савремена споменичка култура није само резултат нормативног, институционалног устројства, већ настаје и као последица интеракције великог броја појединаца који своје виђење света деле, пре свега, у сајбер и онлајн простору (Chrysos, 2016). У том смислу, човек XXI века је постао меморијски киборг: део нашег памћења везан је за физиолошке процесе и културне обрасце, али добар део наше меморије директно је устројен технолошким алаткама (рачунарима, телефонима, таблетима) и чини нас зависним од њих.…”
