MySpace and Identity Production

Dana Boyd has what looks like an interesting essay on how MySpace functions as a site for identity formation. Boyd is an interesting digital culture critic. I heard her on a program on Open Source a few months ago. If you want to check out her work take a look at her extensive writings on her blog, apophenia. She has a Best of Apophenia page that collects her writing under a set of pretty interesting subject headings. Worth a look.
