Liz Lawleyn artikkeli erilaisista blogitutkimuksen lähestymistavoista (tässä supistettuna):
- First, study of the form itself. This includes definitional and descriptive approaches.
- Second is the study of interactions between blogs and blog authors, and the clusters (or communities) that are forming in this context.
- Third, the kind of ethnographic studies that I referenced above, but done not in “the blogosphre” (if there is such a thing) as a whole, but in those clusters and communities that we’re able to identify.
- Fourth, analysis of the content and style used in weblogs.
- Fifth, study of the use of weblogs as tools in specific organizational contexts.
Ei välttämättä mielekkäin jaottelu sosiologian näkökulmasta, mutta käyttökelpoinen lähtökohta oman tutkimusnäkökulman hahmoittamiseen.
