Inhaltsangabe

Forces of social and technological change have affected how humans perceive the uses of technology, what they use, and how they use computing within organizations and society. In 20 articles (and a forward acknowledging the contributions of the late Rob Kling to the field), contributors describe productivity, democratization, the death of distance, freedom and information rights and the development of ubiquitous computing. Specific topics include the computerization movement in the US home mortgage industry, the mobilization of support for new technologies, digital photography as a computerization movement, communication networks in a high-tech organization, "small" networking, online communities, virtual teams, large-scale distribution collaboration, proliferating intranets, information and communications rights as a new environmentalism, free and open source software, the results when computerization movements interact, reliability and freedom (a case study), user pragmatics in technology adoption, academic computing, the politics of design, and social movements shaping the Internet.
