Cyberville: Clicks, Culture, and the Creation of an Online Town

by Stacy Horn

Description

Drawing on her experience founding and participating in Echo, an influential online community, Stacy Horn offers an intimate portrait of how digital spaces become real communities. Through lively accounts of debates, friendships, conflicts, romances, and unexpected alliances, she explores the ways people reveal themselves when identity and interaction are mediated by screens. The book examines enduring questions about connection, free expression, censorship, intimacy, and the boundaries between virtual and everyday life. Both cultural history and personal narrative, it captures the early Internet as a place of experimentation where a new kind of town was taking shape.
