During our Calvino project where we linked our page to separate and for me often newly visited sites I considered the instability of internet media. However, I did not consider the historical repercussions until reading Roy Rosenzweig’s article on this subject. What kind of portrayal will be left of our cultural history? Similar to censoring a history book though actually devaluing and erasing certain representations of the spectrum of our experience. Though, I think these individual collections will fill in the holes like in other time periods. Unfortunately, these will only be preserved if there are physical and non web based archives as back-ups. I found this article very interesting, it was easier for me to relate this information to our studies. Many of the other readings while also entirely relatable did not grasp my attention quite as quickly.<\/p>\n
In class today we discussed the several possible directions and ideas for our media analysis. It was very helpful to be given some time to explore the possible sites. However, I especially appreciated the list of sub-questions even though we had discussed the questions. It will help to have something to look at when deciphering the archives. Many of the archives I have looked at have been somewhat limited. So, I am veering toward the comparative analysis of a couple of sites. At this point I need a few more hours to explore my options. I will post my decision tommorrow. <\/p>\n
