Japan's enthusiastic engagement with mobile technology has become -- along with anime, manga, and sushi -- part of its trendsetting popular culture. Personal, Portable, Pedestrian, the first book-length English-language treatment of mobile communication use in Japan, covers the transformation of keitai from business tool to personal device for communication and play. The essays in this groundbreaking collection document the emergence, incorporation, and domestication of mobile communications in a wide range of social practices and institutions. The book first considers the social, cultural, and historical context of keitai development, including its beginnings in youth pager use in the early 1990s. It then discusses the virtually seamless integration of keitai use into everyday life, contrasting it to the more escapist character of Internet use on the PC. Other essays suggest that the use of mobile communication reinforces ties between close friends and family, producing "tele-cocooning" by tight-knit social groups. The book also discusses mobile phone manners and examines keitai use by copier technicians, multitasking housewives, and school children. Personal, Portable, Pedestrian describes a mobile universe in which networked relations are a pervasive and persistent fixture of everyday life. 606 $aTechnology$xSocial aspects$zJapan 606 $aCell phones 610 1 $aMobile phones 610 1 $aJapanese life 615 0$aTechnology$xSocial aspects 615 0$aCell phones. 676 $a303.48/33/0952 701 $aIto$b Mizuko$00 701 $aOkabe$b Daisuke$01597656 701 $aMatsuda$b Misa$f1968-$01597657 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828124603321 996 $aPersonal, portable, pedestrian$93919476 997 $aUNINA
