| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | With the vast majority of Facebook users caught in a frenzy of 'frie nding', 'liking' and 'commenting', at what point do we pause to grasp t he consequences of our info-saturated lives? What compels us to engage so diligently with social networking systems? Networks Without a Cause examines our collective obsession with identity and self-management cou pled with the fragmentation and information overload endemic to contemp orary online culture. With a dearth of theory on the social and cultura l ramifications of hugely popular online services, Lovink provides a pa th-breaking critical analysis of our over-hyped, networked world with c ase studies on search engines, online video, blogging, digital radio, m edia activism and the Wikileaks saga. This book offers a powerful messa ge to media practitioners and theorists: let us collectively unleash ou r critical capacities to influence technology design and workspaces, ot herwise we will disappear into the cloud. Probing but never pessimistic , Lovink draws from his long history in media research to offer a criti que of the political structures and conceptual powers embedded in the t echnologies that shape our daily lives. |
