iCS and NM&S would rank high for me too. I probably would not privilege the top Sociology journals. More generally, I have issues with such an attempt to rank. For me, CITASA has always been about the intersection of communication, information, media and sociology. Since we represent the intersection of sociology with other disciplines, I think we value publications in any highly ranked journal. I would probably favor journals with a high impact rating, but given that we are not only at the intersection, but are a relatively developing area, I question how much weight we can place on impact factor alone.

I remember doing a rant about 12 years ago to get the new City & Community journal of ASA to accept what we then called "Virtual Community." Ton Orum the editor was sympathetic, but much of Ed Board wasnt. They published in an early issue Keith Hampton & my Neighboring in Netville, which has become one of our -- and their --- most cited. 566 cites and counting. according to Harzing's Barry Wellman _______________________________________________________________________ FRSC NetLab Network INSNA Founder Faculty of Information (iSchool) University of Toronto Toronto Canada M5S 3G6 http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~wellman twitter: @barrywellman NETWORKED:The New Social Operating System.

I agree, but would add that the mainstream sociology, political science and other social science journals are doing better, although this is recent. They were all late in recognising the significance of communication and technology to the mainstream discipline, and therefore often rediscover themes and issues that have been tackled earlier in journals like iCS.

"We Am a Virtual Community"

               Education is a process, not an event.

My experience was publishing an article entitled, "We Am a Virtual Community" I wanted to point out that we didn't really know what this thing was that we were creating. I had to fight editor after editor who wanted to "correct" the grammar. earl -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Education is a process, not an event.
