Everyday life is becoming more and more mixed with technologies used for knowledge production. People are adept at a variety of technologies that help them meet, interact and share information.

When is knowledge shared, and with what consequences? In these cognitive/technical practices, can I see what you know? How do we know what we know? Which knowledge is not shared when using technology? What is the position of technology in the exclusion or attrition of particular knowledge configurations?.
