Digital+Dossier+2016

To Healigan's 2016 CLASS: Check out these links, look at the videos, read the note at the top //(after the row of dollar signs)//. You may also want to scroll down to the questions you should be asking yourself and then, the section entitled "PLACES TO START." It is YOUR internet, but you have to TAKE CONTROL of it. Make a scrapbook of YOU in the internet. I expect of list of 8-12 URLs documenting your life on the net.

// Who are you on the Internet? // Have you considered the impression you leave every single time you go online? Because the digital world is "new" and evolving daily, your Curriculum Vitae (resume) online develops very differently than a portfolio of schoolwork that you store in a desk--manila folder, stapled essays, handwritten comments from teachers on tests. Did your parents keep your papers from grade school? Chances are they did. Well, since the first day you appeared on the scene on the day of your birth, you have been creating an Electronic Portfolio (whether or not you thought about it) of every digital experience you have ever had. It is time to begin managing it. The Internet remembers everything about you. I choose to think it is cool: the internet knows I am Leslie Healey and it also knows I am Healigan. Better yet, it reliably connects me with my family, work, my ideas, my writing, what I think is beautiful, fun, intriguing or frustrating. So, the internet stores it, but I should be the one to manage it and track my own progress. This project is meant to be a beginning, an entry-level review of your own digital life.

For instance, do you know how many photos of you are tagged on Facebook? Do you know who has tagged you? Why does Google care so much that you join Google+? Why do I recommend that you NOT join Google+ when we are creating Googledocs? Do you have a YouTube or DeviantArt site? Where do your Snapchats go? What is the business model for Kik or YikYak? How do they make money? What have you bought online?

How does Instagram decide what pics show up when you hit "explore"? Does Apple track your iCloud? How about an OpenID account? What IS an OpenID account? Do you share your playlists on any networks? Do you use Pandora, Soundcloud, Spotify or another service for music sharing or listening?

How does Amazon.com know what kind of videos you might buy? Have you ever been fingerprinted? What is a Google alert? What games do you play online? What pops up about you if you google St Marks + your name? Have you posted to this wiki or our blog this year? Are you addicted to perezhilton.com? Do you comment on online blog posts or news sites?
 * (Sometimes you have to register with a site to comment, which means they track you.) **
