- Footnote
- ... Any work addressing specific technology will soon be dated, but with their broad-based theoretical stance, the writers present frameworks that will be useful for graduate classes in information science, ethics, and, political science, well into the future. Aside from the content, the medium here does convey a message. A rudimentary citation analysis shows that 15.8% of the materials referenced in Democracy and the New Media are freely available an the Internet, allowing even readers who cannot easily access a research library to an increased level of interaction with the text. This suggests that in one way at least, Web technology is enhancing democracy. The impetus toward speed is also evident, with no fewer than five typos appearing in this edition, indicating the downside of attempting to deliberate and publish in this digitally paced world."
