Review :

Digital Methods enabled a wave of research in the cultural dynamics of contemporary network society. With this new edition, Richard Rogers brings Digital Methods to the new emerging platforms that are reshaping our digital lives. With multiple platform-specific cases and examples, ‘Doing Digital Methods’ remains a fundamental resource for both practitioners and students.

Doing Digital Methods is a comprehensive guide to the practical techniques of digital methods with an emphasis on the critical evaluation of the growing use of online social data for research. Updated with chapters on Instagram and TikTok, Rogers provides an essential book for those seeking to navigate the intricacies of digital research methods. How does one study rather than chase after a medium that is constantly evolving? Doing Digital Methods is a must read, indispensable, and invaluable guide for those researching the socio-cultural internet. Inspired and forward thinking. Doing Digital Methods is a foundational guide for understanding how the digital has become a pivotal landscape for empirical exploration. From Google Search results to videos on TikTok’s For You Page, Rogers develops the reader’s ability to recognize digital artifacts and data as meaningful outputs for humanities and social science research. This is an excellent and long overdue book on current research practice involving digital media. The new chapter on ′preparing for critical social research′ is a brilliant addition to further refine researcher expertise.
