Abstract:
A cutting edge exploration of how the digital revolution is challenging our notion of 'self' and 'presence'. Miller illustrates how ubiquitous communication technologies have created a disjuncture between how we think we exist in the world, and how we actually do exist through our use of mobile media and the Internet in constructing our online selves
