Recommended Readings & Links:

 

My suggestion for reading is the latest special issue in the Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication on Social Network Sites.

 

The first article is a particularly good summary of the latest research on social network websites: "Social Network Sites: Definition, History, and Scholarship" by Danah m. boyd and Nicole B. Ellison
