Talk:Ryan Grant

Hey Ryan,

At first, I was rather overwhelmed with the layout of your autobiography. The large blocks of text were hard to differentiate, but when I dug into them I discovered they were filled with great content. I think you could have presented your story in a more reader-friendly way by splitting up the blocks of text into subcategories or adding more visual elements that would help guide your story. You touched on the theme of temporality, or the self-modification of your profile over time, after you experienced real implications from your Facebook identity. We live in an interesting time where our origins online begin at a much younger age than our parents generation, and as a result, there is a great deal of modification to protect our ever-shrinking privacy. I also liked how you touched on the saturated Facebook news articles and how quickly we are to accept what we read as truth. Overall, I thought you made excellent points that really spoke to how in depth you tackled this assignment (despite not even having a Facebook anymore). I just believe they could have been presented with more clarity to the reader, as it took patience to break down each paragraph. Great job!
