Kairos: A Journal of Rhetoric, Technology, and Pedagogy is pleased to announce the release of Issue 12.2 for Spring 2008. Our Topoi section has three webtexts from the 2007 Computers and Writing Conference (C&W) in Detroit, where the theme was Virtual Urbanism. New to Kairos in this issue are also session reviews from the Computers and Writing conference.

This issue's Topoi section contains three articles from David Fisher, David Russell, Joseph Williams, and Dan Fisher; Curtis Hisayasu and Jentery Sayers; Robert Dornsife and Russel Wiebe. In our Praxis section are two articles from Karen J. Lunsford, Jane Faulkner, Alison Bright, Vicki Chu, James K. Ford, Steve Miley, Cassandra M. Nichols, and Mary Lourdes Silva; and Alex Reid.

Our reviews section provides perspectives on Republic.com 2.0 by Cass R. Sunstein; Rhetoric Online: Persuasion and Politics on the World Wide Web by Barbara Warnick; Eloquent Images: Word and Image in the Age of New Media by Mary E. Hocks and Michelle R. Kendrick; and Peers, Pirates, and Persuasion: Rhetoric in the Peer-to-Peer Debates by John Logie.

We invite you to view the issue and to discuss it here. Additionally, Kairos will start occasionally running webtext versions of "letters to the editor" as we receive them. Called "Disputio: A Reader's Forum," this venue is designed to let our readers argue their ideas in relation to published webtexts, featured themes, or ideas in the field in general. We invite readers to submit short digital texts that invite or incite further commentary. For more about this, please see our Logging On section.

We also hope that you will nominate people for the 2008 Kairos Awards: the deadline is March 1st, 2008.
