Thought provoking: What is an online identity?

Annie in 804 brought up some really interesting thoughts about the whole concept of posting anything online in her inaugural blog post.  You should read it HERE and leave comments below about what you think about writing online:

• Is writing online different than in a notebook? In what ways?
• In what ways can writing online be liberating? Limiting?
• Do you think that people are more real online or do we create online personalities that project the best of ourselves? Or something else?
• Do you think that teenagers abuse the freedom that being online gives you on sites like facebook? Do people type things they would never say to a person's face? Do you think this is a good or bad thing? Why?
