I would say I’m a pretty average internet user, but not as active on social media as most of the people in my age group (or even older for that matter). I always knew that I was more of a consumer of media rather than a generator. I’m afraid my creativity is sorely lacking, but I’m also a fairly private person. Seeing my map lean more heavily on the visitor side while not surprising, shows how much I try not to leave a presence online.
I hope though this program I can get over being just a “lurker” on the web and create my own presence, which will allow me to really network with not just everyone in the MALAT program, but with more like-minded people beyond. See below for my map.
Hi George,
I like that term”lurker”, very funny.
Although I do leave more of a presence on the web, most of mine is directly related to my work at the college and does not venture out beyond that. I too hope that I can be more involved and create a presence outside of my work life.
Hi George –
Although I have a much broader presence, I am for the most part more comfortable being a consumer, and have long been a lurker.
I like how you’ve used the entities’ icons of varying sizes to represent your presence in a particular space.
