Résumé
Stories exploring life in "America's most wired town",
Blacksburg, Virginia, have appeared in major publications
internationally. Articles in Esquire, USA Weekend,
and Reader's Digest have captured the public's
interest, and now there's a revealing inside look at the
five-year evolution of the Blacksburg Electronic Village --
the ground-breaking venture that has linked the citizens of
Blacksburg, Virginia to each other and to the rest of the
world, based on 100% Internet technology. The book explains
exactly how the Blacksburg Community Network has developed,
from its original concept in 1991 to how it is managed
today. It addresses the social, economic, technical, and
educational impact of living in a "connected town," based
on community-wide surveys, focus groups, and data logging
efforts. It shows the services currently offered and how
they are used by community members, and discusses what has
and hasn't worked -- and why. In addition, the book
describes the essential components of a community network,
and offers valuable "how to" advice on designing and
developing an electronic community.
