Title

¬The maturation of norms for computer-mediated communication

Source

Internet research. 3(1993) no.4, S.30-38

Year

1993

Abstract

Analyzes the communication norms of the major forms of computer-mediated communication. These forms include electronic mail, mailing lists, Usenet newsgroups, virtual environment, interactive massaging, and information services. Norms are the dominant standards for acceptable behaviour of a group of people. Each form of communication has a set of norms, which may be adjusted somewhat for a particular instance of communication for particular participants. new users of computer networks will find that the forms of the communication forums they may join are well established, but they will have the opportunity to create or participate in new forums where those norms may be somewhat different
