Using quantitative data, as well as case studies of Web sites, they explore the impact of the Internet on society from three perspectives: access to Internet technology (the digital divide), involvement with groups and communities through the Internet (social capital), and use of the Internet for social interaction and expression (identity). To provide a more comprehensive account of Internet use, the authors draw comparisons across media and include Internet nonusers and former users in their research. The authors call their research the Syntopia Project to convey the Internet's role as one among a host of communication technologies as well as the synergy between people's online activities and their real-world lives. Their major finding is that Americans use the Internet as an extension and enhancement of their daily routines. Contrary to media sensationalism, the Internet is neither a utopia, liberating people to form a global egalitarian community, nor a dystopia-producing armies of disembodied, lonely individuals. Like any form of communication, it is as helpful or harmful as those who use it. 001387499 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001387499 650_0 $$aInternet$$xSocial aspects$$zUnited States. 001387499 650_0 $$aDigital divide$$zUnited States. 001387499 650_0 $$aTelecommunication$$xSocial aspects$$zUnited States. 001387499 653__ $$aINFORMATION SCIENCE/Technology & Policy 001387499 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001387499 7001_ $$aRice, Ronald E. 001387499 852__ $$bebk 001387499 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/6292.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001387499 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001387499 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1387499$$pGLOBAL_SET 001387499 980__ $$aBIB 001387499 980__ $$aEBOOK 001387499 982__ $$aEbook 001387499 983__ $$aOnline
