"Daily life is connected life, its rhythms driven by endless email pings and responses,
the chimes and beeps of continually arriving text messages, tweets and retweets, Facebook
updates, pictures and videos to post and discuss. Our perpetual connectedness gives
us endless opportunities to be part of the give-and-take of networking. Some worry
that this new environment makes us isolated and lonely. But in Networked, Lee Rainie
and Barry Wellman show how the large, loosely knit social circles of networked individuals
expand opportunities for learning, problem solving, decision making, and personal
interaction. The new social operating system of 'networked individualism' liberates
us from the restrictions of tightly knit groups; it also requires us to develop networking
skills and strategies, work on maintaining ties, and balance multiple overlapping
networks. Rainie and Wellman outline the 'triple revolution' that has brought on this
transformation: the rise of social networking, the capacity of the Internet to empower
individuals, and the always-on connectivity of mobile devices. Drawing on extensive
evidence, they examine how the move to networked individualism has expanded personal
relationships beyond households and neighborhoods; transformed work into less hierarchical,
more team-driven enterprises; encouraged individuals to create and share content;
and changed the way people obtain information. Rainie and Wellman guide us through
the challenges and opportunities of living in the evolving world of networked individuals."--Jacket
