In less than ten years, the world wide web has become part of
everyday life. During the 1990s, it was often perceived as a
possible source of dramatic social change for business, politics,
and the arts. Now, it is increasingly clear that the web has itself
been shaped by the existing institutions of society -- businesses,
parliaments, schools, families -- even while challenging some of
their structures and premises. This volume takes stock of the web,
a decade after its popular breakthrough. The articles examine
websites as interfaces to contemporary culture and as resources for
political participation. Following accounts of the history of
computers and the web, the volume presents concrete analyses of how
politicians, corporations, activists, cultural institutions, and
media weave the web for the general public.
