Presentations

Director Lee Rainie spoke about the rise of "networked individuals," a concept that he and Barry Wellman explore in their forthcoming book, Networked: The New Social Operating System. He described how revolutions in social networking, the internet, and mobile connectivity have changed the way that peope deal with each other and communities in their lives and how people can function more effectively in this new environment.
