He takes a geo-referencing perspective and is working on his PhD in geography. It may not help you with the libraries portion of your paper but it is very much demoncracy2.0 Here's a link to a talk he gave at the Berkman center http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/mediaberkman/2009/11/24/cameran-ashraf-on-iranelection-the-digital-media-response-to-the-2009-iranian-election-audio/ cheers, Laura Hi Ed – you might be interested in following the work of a former colleague of mine, Camran Ashraf
