Re: Focal Actor ... and more :)

Hi Joanna and Irwan

Just to say that you can find some interesting links about ANT,
which could help you, here in our yahoo group.

Just go to this link:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/actor-network-theory/links

I guess that the site of the University of Lancaster is the best
(this site chanded his adress; this is the new one):
