FOGcon!
So I am moderating a panel on Saturday March 12 from 13:30 - 14:45 at FOGcon, My City Goes to 1011:
Can an online community be considered a city? Why or why not? If so, how
does one define the community boundaries? If not, what are the
differences?
Who else is going to FOGcon? Also,![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
oyceter is organizing a POC meetup at the con.
See you at the con, I hope!
I need a San Francisco icon, methinks.

A city is a sub-unit in many cases, of course, but the thing about the online communities a lot of people are familiar with is that they transcend national boundaries. Obviously there is a hierarchy as well as commonalities of culture that unite us, but they're not necessarily nationally bounded or determined--so the question becomes, what is the determinant?
