O článku:
The article investigates the possibilities of interpreting computer-mediated information as folklore. Although among folklorists it is still not fully accepted, for the generation of digital natives it is evident that computer-mediated communication is suitable for transmitting folklore as well. The aim of this article is to formulate initial questions about the possibilities and framework of collecting electronic folklore, especially about its not yet elaborated methodology. The author recommends that out of the vast number of terms used for the phenomenon concerned ‘electronic folklore’ and ‘Internet folklore’ should be applied. The former one is to be used for modern folklore created, altered and transmitted via electronic devices, while the latter one is for phenomena that contain folklore and are transmitted through the Internet.
