Net Culture Site Directory
Welcome to Creative Hat's Net Culture Site, brought to you by Cindy Grant. The Internet is radically changing the way we look at our world. These changes affect our methods of communication and learning, as well as our identity -- for we are no longer confined to our physical selves. As participants of the Internet age, we must step outside the experience at times to observe the changes in our society. This site is interdisciplinary -- incorporating psychology, sociology, and anthropology.
Here is a collection of original articles, over 120 annotated links, and recommended readings.
