FAQ

I’m a Computer Programmer. Isn’t Web Science all about Sociology? No! Web Science is genuinely about the technology of the web. It’s also about the way that this technology impacts individual users and society as a whole, and the way that personal and societal pressures (e.g. legal, economic, government, criminal, personal, political and social factors) in turn influence the development of the technology. The Web has developed in tandem with other technologies and scientific innovations and as a ‘social machine’ it has also developed as part of changes in society.
