Digital Ethnography

http://mediatedcultures.net/mediatedculture.htm

Apparently, Dr. Wesch, professor of Anthropology at Kansas State University teaches a course on social media. The blog on the site suggest that there is an emphasis on YouTube, and by the end of the course, the students film ethnographies about YouTube and post them on YouTube. An exercise in reflexivity (for the "inhabitants" of YouTube?).
