Stage- Chapter 3 140-147 & 157-165

I thought that the authors made some good points in this reading. The first, that you need to feel comfortable and safe in the subculture that you're observing. You don't want to sacrifice either one for the sake of research. Also I thought that there were some good tips inside box 13, that talked about reading an artifact. After being part of a subculture it may be hard to remember what it was like not to understand terminology or to think something's new and exciting.
A good example of this is Skye Angus's Confessions of a Blog Addict. He admits that he's already part of the group but he still is aware that some may not fully understand the terminology or understand what makes it special. So he goes slow in introducing it, which may be handy in my particular project because I am researching a part of life most have left behind and forgotten.
