danah boyd’s “MyFriends, MySpace” Presentation


danah boyd making her “MyFriends, MySpace” presentation at the Berkman Center at Harvard, Tuesday, June 19th, 2007.

One of the things I got to do during last week’s vacation was go visit the place where the Ginger Ninja worked for four years (and where I met her!) — the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard. We caught their Tuesday luncheon series and had the good fortune of meeting danah boyd, who gave her presentation titled MyFriends, MySpace.

I took notes and photos during the presentation — you can check them out on my tech blog, Global Nerdy.
