Encyclopedic overview

Internet culture is the set of practices, norms, aesthetics, and shared references that emerge in networked communication. The term covers the languages, rituals, humor, and genres that circulate across platforms, as well as communities, identities, and forms of collaboration that are native to online environments. Internet culture is shaped by the technical architecture of networks, the governance of platforms, and the political economy of data, which together condition how people find audiences, cooperate, and contest power online.
