RESEARCH PAPERS

THE CLEAR AND PRESENT INTERNET: TERRORISM, CYBERSPACE,
AND THE FIRST AMENDMENT by Peter Margulies (UCLA Law
Tech Journal)
Many terrorist groups share a common goal with
mainstream organizations and institutions: the search
for greater efficiency through the Internet. This
pursuit of on-line efficiency has spawned a First
Amendment dilemma. The Internet’s ability to link
geographically dispersed individuals to changing data
without the filtering provided by traditional media is
a substantial asset for domestic and transnational
networks, from violent white supremacist groups1 to Al
Qaeda.2 However, much of the Web’s terrorism-related
content, including the abstract advocacy of violence,
has manifest value as an exercise of free speech.
Modern First Amendment jurisprudence protects extreme
speech as a form of engagement in the polity, and
responds to fears that unleashing the government on
speakers will permit the targeting of groups outside
the perceived mainstream.3 Nevertheless, some Internet
communications intended for the mobilization and
implementation of violence should forfeit protection.
The difficulty lies in drawing lines that reach
Internet communication the state can legitimately
prohibit without chilling protected speech.

Understanding the flow experiences of Web users. PhD
thesis, School of Business and Information Management,
Faculty of Economics and Commerce, ANU by Pace, Steven
Abstract: This thesis presents a grounded theory of
the flow experiences of Web users engaged in
information-seeking activities. The term flow refers
to a state of consciousness that is sometimes
experienced by individuals who are deeply involved in
an enjoyable activity. The experience is characterised
by some common elements: a balance between the
challenges of an activity and the skills required to
meet those challenges; clear goals and feedback;
concentration on the task at hand; a sense of control;
a merging of action and awareness; a loss of
self-consciousness; a distorted sense of time; and the
autotelic experience.
