Sorry, the Cybergeography Research web pages are no longer being updated. The project ran from 1997- 2004, but my research has moved away into other areas (see my blog for latest). If you have any questions or comments, please email me at: m.dodge (at) manchester.ac.uk.  Cheers, Martin Dodge, February 2007.
