Participation Literacy

First of all I want to thank my wife Susanne and my supervisor professor Lena Trojer. You have both been a big help to me in different ways.

I also want to thank my family, friends and colleagues for all support: All of you at Technoscience Studies because of our invaluable discussions and you at the Library because you create an inspiring environment for new thoughts.

But I also want to thank all of you out there on the World Wide Web who participate in the creation of our new world. Among you I especially want to thank the people who work for open source and open access and you who actively produce intellectual material for me and everyone else to experience.
