I\u2019m not a technology expert and mainly use the Internet for research purposes. There was nothing embarrassing, except maybe a picture of me from my much younger days. Most of what I found related to my professional life. I don\u2019t really self-censor online because I only ever share information about my industry, never opinions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bonnie Stewart<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When considering Bonnie Stewart\u2019s Six Key Selves, I recognize a few of the \u2018selves\u2019 in my online presence. My Quantified\/Articulated Self has a very low status and scale on social networks. I have a Facebook profile but never post anything. In fact, I think my daughter set it up for me a few years ago! As for the Participatory Self, I\u2019m primarily a consumer of what other people produce and share little personal content. I am, however, a large producer of content in terms of promoting by company\u2019s services. I have a large professional participatory self but a very small personal participatory self. As for Asynchronous Self, I actually like the \u201cinterruptive, immediate\u201d telephone because I can tell a person\u2019s tone, emotion, etc. unlike in a text, email, etc. As for the PolySocial Self, I would say my \u201cbrand\u201d is that I\u2019m a technical expert within my industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kris Shafer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kris Shafer\u2019s posts on digital minimalism and online decluttering are very relevant for people who have been active on social media platforms for some time. While I\u2019m not active, I did find the idea of deleting old Tweets and information from a long time ago very important. Our opinions, positions and ideas on things change over time. To have someone dig up a post or Tweet or Comment from a decade ago could have devastating results. What we said then might not be an accurate portrayal of who we are and what we think today. This is especially important for young people who share a lot online.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Biography Norman Beange was born on April 22, 1947 and lives in Markham, Ontario.
