Danah Boyd!!

Awesome! I finally found a good presentation video of hers! This was from 2007.

Danah Boyd researches social networks and gives an interesting academic take on what our generation has embraced as what I'd like to call our vocal media. I've been following her works since my sophomore year in college, and think she has a great many interesting things to say about the blog-o-verse, and the phenomena of myspace/facebook and other social networks.
