Introduction My name is Denise M. Carter and I am a lecturer in |Media, Culture and Society at the University of Hull, UK. My particular interests are in the transformative effects of the Internet and its increasing embeddedness in everyday lives. My doctoral research is an ethnographic account of my three years living and working in a virtual community. This research, among other things looks at friendship and community, new theories of space and place, the ways in which the challenges of online ethnography informs contemporary ethnographic practices and the writing of postmodern ethnography. My particular interests are in the transformative effects of the Internet and its increasing embeddedness in everyday lives. I have worked in Research on a number of e-safety projects over the last four years, including the EU InSafe project and the EU SimSafety project.
