Spinuzzi

I should remember this book but in case I blank, this is a reminder. He probably gives useful citations on ecology.

More ecology and architecture

These mightbe useful in the article. I'm starting to think about the info architecture versus info ecology aspect.

Some ecology/architecture cites

In Nicole Brown's "The Regionalization of Cyberspace: Making Visible the Spatial Discourse of Community Online," she cites some folks on ecology (Cooper, Nardi and O'Day) and architecture (Wurman) as she considers community. Ultimately, she pushes for information architecture as her preferred phrase.
