Notas del editor
- Digital Methods is a term coined as a counter-point to virtual methods, which typically digitize existing methods and port them onto the Web. Digital Methods, contrariwise, seek to learn from the methods built into the dominant devices online, and repurpose them for social and cultural research. That is, the challenge is to study the info-web and the social web with the tools that organize them.
- There is a general protocol to digital methods. At the outset stock is taken of the natively digital objects that are available (links, tags, threads, etc.) and how devices such as search engines make use of them. Can the device techniques be repurposed, for example by remixing the digital objects they take as inputs?

- An underinterrogated aspect of Wikipedians' vigilance are the robots, or bots -- software that often automatically monitors wikipedia pages for changes. Thus, initially, we are interested in the overall picture. How many edits are made by humans, and how many by bots? Having noticed the great discrepancy between bot activity in English and the other language versions of Wikipedia, we became interested in the level of bot activity per language.

- DEVICES REQUIRE CUSTOM TOOLS! Twitter goes back two weeks. How to create a story? For the ppl of Iran - #iranelection RT is an exercise in transforming the supposed banality of Twitter into a machine that recounts events on the ground and in social media. #iranelection RT is a collection of all the tweets that have been tagged #iranelection from the first one on10 June up to 30 June 2009, some 650,000 in all. The most “retweeted” tweets (RTs) have been filtered and organised chronologically, as opposed to the reverse chronology that Twitter uses. In “reversed realtime” the most significant #iranelection retweets show the urgency and the emotion of those twenty days in June, when the tensions on the streets and the coverage in the media were at their height. The collection of tweets also shows how tweeters respond to what is happening online and on the ground. Tweets reporting important websites blocked are fol- lowed up by proxies being offered. Accounts of police using pepper spray are followed up by links to websites with first aid information.
