Spinning Webs of Significance - http://carbon.cudenver.edu/~mryder/iscrat_99.html
Martin Ryder's paper looks at activity systems from the perspective of the World Wide Web and Web publishing. It discusses notions of value surrounding web artifacts and considers the mediational value to the developer of anonymous communities that appropriate one's own online artifacts. The author investigates the significance of referring links from one web document to another, particularly from the socio-cultural perspective of Activity Theory. |
