Abstract
Academic online social networking has received increasing focus in recent years with the development of a number of services aimed specifically at academics. There has, however, been little empirical work on the subject. This study seeks to understand the structure and role of academics’ ego-networks on social networking sites in relation to developing an academic identity and becoming professional in their disciplines. To this end, a mixed-methods social network analysis approach will be used. Current outstanding issues relating to analysis and reporting, ethics, and the role of theory, will be outlined for discussion.
