Online Social Interactions amongst Indian women in IT
Journal Title: SCIT Journal - Year 2010, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
The cyberspace seems to appeal many women for the possibilities it offers for connecting, networking and sharing information. In a bid to understahd the usage of Web 2.0 as a social networking medium by technical women for personal as well as professional reasons, an exploratory study was conducted on married Indian women working in the field of Information Technology. While the professional reasons to access the social networks outweigh the personal reasons, few women are also discussing about themselves, their ambitions and desires. This is a good indication considering the fact that most Indian women keep their likings and personal life to themselves. Patterns and styles of interaction on the online social networks provide a glimpse into the overall portrait of the emerging Indian woman.
