社会学家雷·奥尔登伯格(Ray Oldenburg)创造了“第三个地方”(third place)或“很棒的地方”(great good places)这个词,用来形容家庭和工作场所之外用于非正式社交的公共空间。Oldenburg的概念一直被用来描述计算机媒介环境(如聊天室和多用户环境)的交流。本文分析了Oldenburg的计算机媒介传播学术概念的准确性、实用性和潜在缺陷。此外,它为在万维网上创建可行的“虚拟”第三空间提供了必要的条件。最后,它确定了继续研究的方向,以及对数字通信技术感兴趣的学者的理论意义。
The sociologist Ray Oldenburg coined the term 'third place' or 'great good places' to describe the public spaces used for informal social interaction outside of the home and workplace. Oldenburg's conceptualization has been used consistently to describe the communication of computer-mediated contexts such as chatrooms and multiuser environments. This analysis examines the accuracy, utility and potential pitfalls of Oldenburg's concept for computer-mediated communication scholarship. Further, it offers the necessary conditions for creating viable 'virtual' third places on the world wide web. Finally, it identifies directions for continued research as well as theoretical implications for scholars interested in digital communication technologies.
