通过凯里的文化传播方法，本文重新审视了关于新传播技术的历史影响的争论。一些研究指出，技术的“启示”提供了一个有用的中间地带之间的决定论和社会建构主义的观点。本文探讨了如何调整可供性的概念，以强调一种新兴技术对使用和发展它的文化的及时启示。文章的后半部分通过对博客技术的可供性的仔细研究来说明讨论，特别是一种新的通信类型：新闻相关博客。
Informed by Carey's cultural approach to communication, this article revisits the debate about the historical impact of new communication technologies. Several studies have pointed to technology "affordances" as offering a useful middle ground between determinist and social constructivist perspectives. This article explores how the concept of affordance might be tweaked to emphasize what an emerging technology suggests in time to the cultures using and developing it. The second half of the article illustrates the discussion with a close examination of the affordances of blogging technology and especially of a novel communications genre: news-related blogs.
