[csaa-forum] Convergence 13.3 Open Call for Papers

[Jason Wilson]

(apologies for x-posting)

The process of change and renewal continues at
Convergence: The International Journal of Research
into New Media Technologies. Following our move to
Sage publications, there have been changes to the
editorial board, and we have a number of exciting
proposals for guest-edited themed issues to appear
over coming volumes. We expect these developments will
further confirm Convergence's status as one of the
preeminent scholarly journals in new media studies.

Regular readers and subscribers will know that, apart
from two annual special issues, Convergence publishes
two numbers a year which are open to any submissions
that fall within our remit. This is an open call for
papers for Volume 13, number 3, which will appear in
August 2007. For this issue, papers would need to be
submitted by 31st August 2006.
