Chronicle of Higher Education article about my research

Greetings to those of you who may have found my website via the Chronicle of Higher Education’s recent story about my recently published research paper with Eszter Hargittai called “Wikipedia’s Editing Process Still a Mystery to Students.” Overall I’m happy with the post in the Chronicle, I just want to make a clarification. It says “Of the students in the study, 77 percent had used Wikipedia at some point in their research” — That’s just during the web browsing we observed in the study itself.

I’ve been remiss in posting to this blog recently for a variety of reasons, chiefly because I’m analyzing the (massive amounts of) data I collected for my dissertation about the role of technology in citizens’ selection of political news and information during the November mid-term election campaign. Also, I’m working on documenting the software I created with the help of Audacious Software to collect real-world web data for my dissertation, which is called Roxy.
