Since academics first began studying communication, they’ve been trying to figure out who we talk to and how those networks change with the invention of new mediums of interaction. Who you could talk to, and even what you might talk about, obviously differed between the eras of the covered wagon and the cell phone.
And now we have an instantaneous, global and (mostly) free platform for talking to virtually anyone: the Internet. So how has it altered the real-world geography of communication?
