Reading.

When reading through the book, this passage in chapter three that really stood out to me.

"In some ways, this automated diarying highlights the ways that self-documentation has always been both incidental and delberate. Before digital cameras, people often kept their never-sorted photos in shoeboxes, along with other paraphernalia of their daily lives: tickets from trips they'd taken or shows the'd been to, cuttings from newspapers and so on. Only some of these would make it into photo albums and scrapbooks or be written about in diaries. Today's technology can write a story automatically from all theses scraps of information about ourselves. Whether or not we want our stories told like this is another matter. (Rettberg82)

I think this passage is showing that blogging has revolutionized the way we share the moments in our lives we have experienced. Before technology has taken over the world, people would tell their stories and save memorabilia to help remember that memory. Now, people can show and share moments with each other with a click of a mouse, instantly displaing photos or blog entries without even talking or explaining every detail. This passage really interested me when I first read it and made me think about how technology has changed life over time. Technology has been an amazing thing to our world but now with modern technology, our generation has kept our interactions online and sometimes our contact with other people is just strictly using the internet.As much as I love technology, sharing memories going the old fashion way never hurts.
