By looking at how popular culture uses different digital technologies, Digital Fandom bolsters contemporary media theory by introducing new methods of analysis. Using the exemplars of alternate reality gaming and fan studies, this book takes into account a particular philosophy of playfulness in today's media in order to establish a new media studies . Digital Fandom augments traditional studies of popular media fandom with descriptions of the contemporary fan in a converged media environment.
