Interesting little study of the ways teenaged girls use instant messaging technology as both a communications tool and a memoir of sorts I do wish that the author had used a broader subject pool, but this was a quick and interesting read regardless.
Stern has asked me to write a review of her book for the Journal of Communication Inquiry.
