Paper Abstract:
|
Work in the Information Society is changing. Independent workers are in need of new social networks, both to survive in
this new challenged environment and to develop a relevant practice. Among other alternatives, the growth of online
communities, open and free is what holds our attention. A first practical exploration done on an online community
oriented to independent professional travelers is discussed. The aim of this introductory study was to find elements
considered relevant for further research. |
