Digitized Lives explores a wide range of topics, including sexuality, politics, education, race, gender relations, the environment, and social protest movements, in an effort to understand digitized culture. It suggests that in order to make sense of the digital world, we need to look beyond the superficiality of techno gear and ask more profound questions about how technology can be used to create a more socially, politically, and economically just society. This second edition includes significant updates on mobile and social media, examining how new platforms and devices have changed the way we interact with digital technologies in the context of the "post-truth era."

A companion website (culturalpolitics.net/index/digital_cultures) offers additional resources, including links to online articles and useful websites, as well as a bibliography of offline resources.

Overall, Digitized Lives provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the impact of technology on our lives and offers valuable insights into how we can use it to create a better future.
