Long Description | In Race After the Internet, Lisa Nakamura and Peter Chow-White bring together a collection of interdisciplinary, forward-looking essays exploring the complex role that digital media technologies play in shaping our ideas about race. Contributors interrogate changing ideas of race within the context of an increasingly digitally mediatized cultural and informational landscape. Using social scientific, rhetorical, textual, and ethnographic approaches, these essays show how new and old styles of race as code, interaction, and image are played out within digital networks of power and privilege. Race After the Internet includes essays on the shifting terrain of racial identity and its connections to social media technologies like Facebook and MySpace, popular online games like World of Warcraft, YouTube and viral video, WiFi infrastructure, the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) program, genetic ancestry testing, and DNA databases in health and law enforcement. Contributors also investigate the ways in which racial profiling and a culture of racialized surveillance arise from the confluence of digital data and rapid developments in biotechnology. This collection aims to broaden the definition of the "digital divide" in order to convey a more nuanced understanding of access, usage, meaning, participation, and production of digital media technology in light of racial inequality. Contributors: danah boyd, Peter Chow-White, Wendy Chun, Sasha Costanza-Chock, Troy Duster, Anna Everett, Rayvon Fouché, Alexander Galloway, Oscar Gandy, Eszter Hargittai, Jeong Won Hwang, Curtis Marez, Tara McPherson, Alondra Nelson, Christian Sandvig, Ernest Wilson |

Data Feed API v2 - Access and Data Layout
This describes how to use version 2.x of the data feed. Version 1.x of the feed is no longer supported in any way.
Accessing the data requires your account to have an active data feed. This switch can be turned on or off on the data feed page. This is also where you will be able to view your KEYCODE which is required to make calls to the feed.
You must always pass these...
- keycode : 16 digit code (your app doesn't need to log in, it only needs the keycode)
- mode : json, xml or csv
When looking up data...
- find : 8, 12 or 13 digits to search for
- comp : yes/no (optional, defaults to "yes". if "no" skip the company lookup)
- pending : yes/no (optional, defaults to "no". if "yes" pending updates may be returned)
- search : normal/deep - if this is omitted or any unexpected value, a normal search will be performed. A deep search will take longer than a normal search. Our web bots will make an effort to locate more information about the product. This only happens if we have no information on file already. This can take a couple extra seconds or up to a minute. Your app needs to be able to deal with this delay. (defaults to normal)
When updating data...
- update : 8, 12 or 13 digits to search for
- field : The product field to update (sorry, no company updates allows)
- value : The new value (will go into a pending area until validated)
- Only products information can be updated (no company info)
- Only update one field per request
- Update may be ignored if other pending updates exist
- Error result status is returned if updating a locked product
- To upload product images, see this blog article.
To download the list of categories...
- get : category
The feed return data structure...
All fieds are returned regardless of the result. Check the status code before trying to make use of any of the data returned. As long as the code you send is valid (not an error) the barcode field will hold a link to a baccode graphic. If you get a 404 error because we can't find the product, you may still get valid data in the company section so you may want to check the company name field.
