In my spare time, I make websites for my superhero friends, help to organize an emerging Oakland hackerspace ([http://sudoroom.org Sudo Room]), and serve as a FOSS evangelist and connector of aligned humans, groups and projects.  

| about my work = Soon to begin working on use cases and conceptual design for [https://commotionwireless.net/ Commotion wireless mesh] and [http://tidepools.co Tidepools] community mapping for the [http://oti.newamerica.net/ Open Technology Institute]. My past research ranges from an extensive ethnography of online social networking ([http://thevirtualcampfire.org The Virtual Campfire]), to digital literacy skills for the 21st century (with [http://rheingold.com Howard Rheingold]), to the legal and ethical dimensions of problematic online content (with [http://danah.org danah boyd]), to posthuman anthropological explorations of how the dead live on online. My research and writings are made freely available to the public (open access rules!) and can be found on [http://jennyryan.net my homepage].
