thesis revised-ish

Yay, I did some revision on my thesis proposal, which for me meant adding more specifics about my methodolgy and the like. Here's the new stuff:

I have chosen to focus my thesis on one particular online community, Afropunk.com, which is one of the largest and well-known of these communities. Afropunk.com originally started as website promoting James Spooner’s (find the year) documentary, “Afropunk”. It has since spawned an online community of nearly 3000 members and also hosts events in the real world. Although the website uses the term “Afropunk” specifically, community members are into various rock scenes. Like “punk”, the term “Afropunk” is more about one’s attitude or approach.
