Instant Messaging, Literacies, and Social Identities Online-Only Supplementary Material Cynthia Lewis, University of Minnesota Bettina Fabos, Miami University The study described in this article drew on extensive videotaped sessions with study participants. Here, as an online-only supplement, the authors make available (with participants’ permission) several sample clips from the video data. These samples serve to illustrate explicitly both one participant’s use of online communication tools, and the rapport between the participant and researcher during data collection. Each link below leads to a video clip with accompanying transcript. Links to the videos are also embedded in the HTML version of the original article, at places in the text where the content of the clip is discussed. Clips are in RealMedia format, and require the free, downloadable RealPlayer to view.
