Talk:Evan Kramer

Peer Review 1
Evan, I found your article to be very informative about the overall identity you adhere to on Facebook. I really enjoyed the sections where you discussed the aspects of your identity that you feel are most important to you and how they show themselves on Facebook. It is interesting to me how you talk about the scarcity of pictures and information in your "About Me" section of Facebook. This shows that you really consider what you put on your Facebook and how important the things that you choose to share are to you. I think that the consideration you put into this allows for a better understanding of how closely related your online identity is to your true identity.

I found the article to be easy to read overall. I would have liked to read more about what aspects of your Facebook go into the different categories of your personality such as what parts of your Facebook demonstrate the "Geek" side of your personality. I found the writing to flow logically and I enjoyed the informal tone of your piece. Great job! -Daniel

I enjoyed the clear yet informal tone used throughout this piece, as well as the stylistic choice to textually acknowledge the shift from a more formal tone to the conversational tone of the rest of the piece. The layout of the piece was nothing if not logical, with each section given a reasonable amount of space and no hiccups in flow or organization. The symmetry of how the piece was organized (intro, single section, section with four subsections, section with four subsections, single section), whether intentional or not, was a nice touch as well.

However, I have to say that I think the piece would have benefitted from a bit of further analysis. Essentially every major mechanism of Facebook in the context of your constructed persona is examined, but more often than not you don't do a lot of looking into WHY your usage patterns are the way that they are, or even where THAT motivation comes from.
