<p>however, the fixation on the actor is still present.  get rid of it, stop thinking about it, think about networks, only networks, and then think about how it constructs the actor, then i think you have a theoretically interesting actor-network theory.</p>

<p>i replied to this on his blog too, but ultimately my position is to rid oneself of the heirarchy of ontology involved in differentiating actors, and just look at the networks.  there really are no actors, because then there is no differences amongst actors, only nodes where networks conjoin.</p>
<p>keeping in mind though that this is just my interpretation of several texts, mainly latour, law, then adding some norbert wiener.  most people really want to differentiate between actors, I&#8217;m unconvinced that it is as important as kant tells us.</p>
