This paper addresses concerns that home-computing and Internet use damage social capital and contribute to a loss of community. Based on survey and ethnographic data from "Netville", a wired neighborhood equipped with a broadband local network, this paper concludes that the Internet can be used to increase neighborhood social capital and the connectivity of local social networks. |
