Introduction: Social scientists conducting research online are presented with a number of methodological problems, some of them unique to the medium of exploration. For example, while some argue that entering cyberspace is the equivalent of going "into the field" there are others who who feel that cyberspace is not "real", and therefore is not worthy of study. Many have debated whether conversations held in cyberspace are public or private, and thus whether social scientists have the right to observe and analyse online discussions without the permission of participants. In this issue of Cybersociology, researchers approach the problem of research methodology in cyberspace from a number of directions. Despite the different approach taken by each contributor, the result is always the same in one respect: in cyberspace, we MUST adhere to the ethical and moral principles that guide our research elsewhere. The following articles are our contribution to the continueing debate about research methodology online. (Robin Hamman, August 1999)
