Hey Kalyani
This sounds really interesting. Will the thesis be available publicly at any point?
I think the social capital perspective on young people's online interactions is one of the most interesting - particularly as a way of exploring new forms of digital inclusion and exclusion and understanding the interface between online and offline networks using a concept that works across both.
Am I understanding from your comment that you essential found (amongst young people in India in any case) that:
>Any loss of social capital resources as a result of being online (and, for example, spending less time in offline activities) was ofset/compensated for by gains in social capital from using online tools?
Would love to hear what the 5 or 10 articles that most influenced your final thesis were...
