I think that you touched upon an important aspect about this article: that information technologies exist all around us and our lives are based around them but we don't always clearly see these distinctions. Also, because there are so many unique and diverse information ecologies, I like that you acknowledged that only those within each one understand how it works.
While reading the article, I made the connections of Nardi's examples with information ecologies (the libraries, hospitals, etc.) but an information ecology can be almost anything and it was interesting to see how you made that connection to your sorority. This really shows one of the core aspects of information ecologies: members working cohesively and all aware of their individual contributions to the group as a whole.
