Описание: This book is a critical and ethnographic study of camgirls: women who broadcast themselves over the web for the general public while trying to cultivate a measure of celebrity in the process. The book's over-arching question is, What does it mean for feminists to speak about the personal as political in a networked society that encourages women to 'represent' through confession, celebrity, and sexual display, but punishes too much visibility with conservative censure and backlash? The narrative follows that of the camgirl phenomenon, beginning with the earliest experiments in personal homecamming and ending with the newest forms of identity and community being articulated through social networking sites like Live Journal, YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook. It is grounded in interviews, performance analysis of events transpiring between camgirls and their viewers, and the author's own experiences as an ersatz camgirl while conducting the research.

Three Amish best friends. Three hurting hearts. One quilt that binds them together.
Emma Stolzfus has never been courted or kissed, and now that she's thirty, it has become her place as the family's last unmarried daughter to look after her elderly mother. But in the dark hours while Mamm is asleep, Emma writes letters and essays for Amish periodicals, short stories for her nieces and nephews, and, secretly, a novel just for herself. After she enters the book in a writing contest, a New York literary agent takes an interest not only in her work, but in her as an Amish woman. Emma takes the train all the way to the city to meet him. When she returns, something about her is different-and the men of her Amish community suddenly notice the shy spinster in a way they never did before. But how can she settle for second best when her heart made its first choice long ago? She's been in love for years with a man she can never have. Only her friends, Amelia and Carrie, know the truth Emma shares while they work together on their quilt. Only they will understand when an old tragedy comes to light that will either hurt or heal ... and reveal Emma's hidden life.
