As regards the inter-weaving of practices (or activities) is that each has its own rhythm, spatial needs, participants etc so putting them together creates problems as well as new affordances. Photography involves a lot of fiddling with controls, adjusting objects, inspecting results etc. Whereas, for example, cooking and eating is more linear and time sensitive. Combining them creates particular types of problem.
At the moment this "ethnography" is too self focussed and static. If the Internet is now mobile and ubiqutous, virtual ethnography should also be free wheeling, globe trotting.
