jesse_the_kHere's a "call for papers" to be published in an academic volume:
Disability and Social Media
edited by Dr Katie Ellis & Dr Mike Kent
Internet Studies, Curtin University
Abstracts are due 15 July 2014
Social media is popularly seen as an important media for people with disability in terms of communication, exchange and activism. These sites potentially increase both employment and leisure opportunities for one of the most traditionally isolated groups in society. However, the offline inaccessible environment has, to a certain degree, been replicated online and particularly social networking sites. ( Subjects, references to current work in this area, and more in the cut )
