What anthropology can contribute to information technology is then a less misinterpreted notion of “context” in ethnographic research, which is often limited to an analysis of actions and interactions constrained by instances of individuals, situations and workplaces in the study; while lacking an understanding of the socio-cultural, historical and environmental factors that may affect the interaction. According to Pfaffenberger, the distinctive combination of small-scale, local-level observational studies with holism — the study of interrelated components of a system or society — is uniquely suited to exploring the complex relationships between technology and culture. What cyber-anthropology can specifically provide then, is, the set of contextual socio-cultural, historical and environmental factors in relation to modern age, with recently established social communities and new forms of human interaction bought by the Internet and new technologies.
