Virtual Globe

The Well: No anonymity: username in the social media these days(anonymous) but Facebook requires real life info(Name instead of Username).

Hypertext: represent information, goal to permit fast and easy access to vast quantities of information. Menu category and tags allow community to define the content.

Smartphones: made people to record moments and share it via apps like TicTok. The posts get reposted onto the other social medias and create a dynamic responses from globe.

  1. Nice illustrations about hypertext and the community built around The Well and present day communication apps.

  2. Nice that you brought up the anonymity of people. I hadn’t really considered that as far as communities online but it makes sense since people are getting personal and talking about specific things. Especially today with how every company is expected to show some kind of transparency as far as security goes.

  3. Nice observations with hypertext and how mobile phones have given us a way to “record” ourselves with real-time feedback.
