SRA Conference on Social Research in the Digital Age


The Annual SRA Conference on Social Research in the Digital Age was held at the British Library on Monday 10th of December 2012. Katie has written a really good summary of the event which you can find here: http://www.methodspace.com/group/nsmnss/forum/topics/summary-of-the-sra-conference-on-digital-research-2012 . This is the home for our NSMNSS group on the Methodspace forum so do take the opportunity to have a browse and add your thoughts.

You can also see the twitter stream of the conference events here: http://the-sra.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/SRA-Annual-Conference-2012-Twitterstream.pdf

We're winding down for the holidays now but we'd like to take a moment to thank everybody who's helped make the network such a success. Whether you've come along to an event, joined in a twitter chat or added a comment to the forum you've helped us to create a new collaborative space for sharing our experiences and reflecting on how social media are affecting social research today. We've got lots more activities coming up in 2013, so we'll look forward to seeing and hearing from you all then. Have a great break!
