Approach
The Program Committee encourages disciplinary and interdisciplinary
approaches rooted in political science, media studies, and
communication scholarship. The JITP Editor strongly endorses new and
experimental approaches involving collaboration with information and
computer science scholars. Potential topics might include, but are not
limited to:

- citizen initiated campaign videos,
- candidates' use of YouTube,
- bloggers use of YouTube to influence the primaries or election,
- the impact of YouTube on traditional or new media coverage of the
election cycle,
- the effect of YouTube on citizen interest, knowledge, engagement, or
voting behavior,
- social network analysis of YouTube and related election-oriented sites,
- political theory or communication theory and YouTube in the context
of the 2008 election,
- new metrics that support the study of the "YouTube Effect" on elections,
- archives for saving and tools for mapping the full landscape of
YouTube election content,
- use of YouTube in the classroom as a way to teach American electoral
politics, or
- reviews of existing scholarship about YouTube.

Keynote Speakers
Day 1: Richard Rogers, Professor in New Media & Digital Culture at the
University of Amsterdam and Director of govcom.org. Dr. Rogers is a
Web epistemologist, an area of study where the main claim is that the
Web is a knowledge culture distinct from other media. Rogers
concentrates on the research opportunities that would have been
improbable or impossible without the Internet. His research involves
studying and building info-tools. He studies and makes use of the
adjudicative or 'recommender' cultures of the Web that help to
determine the reputation of information as well as organizations. The
most well-known tool Rogers has developed with his colleagues is the
Issue Crawler, a server-side Web crawler, co-link machine and graph
visualizer.

Day 2: Noshir Contractor, Northwestern University, the Jane S. &
William J. White Professor of Behavioral Sciences in the School of
Engineering, School of Communication and the Kellogg School of
Management at Northwestern University, USA. He is the Director of the
Science of Networks in Communities (SONIC) Research Group at
Northwestern University. He is investigating factors that lead to the
formation, maintenance, and dissolution of dynamically linked social
and knowledge networks in communities. Specifically, his research
team is developing and testing theories and methods of network science
to map, understand and enable more effective networks in a wide
variety of contexts including communities of practice in business,
science and engineering communities, disaster response teams, public
health networks, digital media and learning networks, and in virtual
worlds, such as Second Life.

Paper Submissions
Authors are invited to prepare and submit to JITP a manuscript
following one of the six submission formats by January 21, 2009. These
formats include research papers, policy viewpoints, workbench notes,
review essays, book reviews, and papers on teaching innovation. The
goal is to produce a special issue, or double issue, of JITP with a
wide variety of approaches to the broad theme of "YouTube and the 2008
Election Cycle in the United States."

How to Submit
Everything you need to know about how to prepare and submit a strong
JITP paper via the JITP web site is documented at
http://www.jitp.net/. Papers will be put through an expedited blind
peer review process by the Program Committee and authors will be
notified about a decision by February 15, 2009. A small number of
papers will be accepted for presentation at the conference. Other
paper authors will be invited to present a poster during the Friday
evening reception. All posters must include a "YouTube" version of
their research findings.

Travel Support
We anticipate having the ability to support the travel expenses of the
presenting author of accepted papers. Should the number of accepted
papers exceed our ability to provide travel support, funds will go
first to graduate students and then on an as-needed basis for other
authors.

Best Paper and Poster Cash Prizes
The author (or authors) of the best research paper will receive a
single $1,000 prize. The creator (or creators) of the best YouTube
poster/research presentation will also receive a single prize of
$1,000.
