A key focus is what it means in varied social arenas when most individuals live as \u003ci\u003eco-present\u003c\/i\u003e or \u003ci\u003emulti-present—\u003c\/i\u003esimultaneously engaged in digital and physical space—alone and with others. Topics include how: digital life contributes to well-being; individuals experience digital dependency; a smartphone is more than a smartphone; netiquette reveals social change; some online communities become prosocial salient havens while others reinforce social inequality; Millennials build intimacy; Latinx do \u003ci\u003efamilismo\u003c\/i\u003e; and digital surveillance and big data redefine consumerism, advocacy, and civic engagement. Six chapters incorporate insights from hourly journals of Millennials undergoing a period of digital abstinence. Other chapters draw from surveys, digital auto-ethnography, content analysis, and other methods to explore digital life at the level of individual and interactive experience, and at a broader institutional and societal level. Ultimately, the book presents the need for living a mindful digital life by developing greater awareness as an individual, a social being, and a netizen and citizen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54150566150488,"sku":null,"price":56.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780367235109.jpg?v=1777193153","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/interfacing-ourselves-living-in-the-digital-age-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
