An Information Society for All?

Jacques Berleur and his colleagues organized a wonderful tribute to Rob Kling through a conference and book entitled Social Informatics: An Information Society for All? (New York: Springer, 2006). The conference was held in Maribor, Slovenia, from 21-23 September 2006, and the book was available, in print, at the event. This is certainly a good example of the Internet being used to complement print publishing.

Officially, it was an IFIP (International Federation for Information Processing) TC9 (Relationship Between Computers and Society) Seventh International Conference on “Human Choice and Computers” (HCC7), organized by the Slovenian Society Informatika with partners. See: http://www.hcc7.org/ 

My own contribution was focused on the ecology of games shaping the future of the Internet. Draft Chapter
