Jon posed this question about blogging -
why don't I make the connection between a failure to censor and a feeling of over exposure?
Which seems like a worthy subject to spend some time on so I will have a crack as they say.
I don’t know Jon from a bar of soap but I hazard to say he’s fairly young and that the internet has been a fixture for most if not all of his mature life. The internet is getting on these days, this year it celebrated its 40th birthday although it was really in the nineties that things got going. As someone whose life predates the internet it is always interesting to speculate on how people’s thinking about the internet is altered by their relative life experience.
For instance my mother was born before the second world war, for her the internet is email. I managed to show her how to get to my flickr site and sometimes she reads the news on a web page somewhere but when I showed her my blog she was almost shocked. I don’t think my blog’s that shocking, I’ve certainly seen worse and anyway blogs are, as we all know, pretty tame affairs anyway. But her reaction wasn’t so much about the content as the concept as she asked “what will people say?”
A bit like hanging out your dirty laundry instead of the stuff that’s clean.
Since I’m a pre-internet generation I have naturally enough inherited some of those concerns and what’s more I’ve worked with media technologies for a large part of my life so my internet persona is to a certain extent well grounded in the idea that anything I say on the internet can and will be used against me. But maybe there’s a big difference in how I see the internet and how others see it, since I do have this rather well defined concept of “my internet persona” which I tend to think of as quite different to my other “real life” public persona and certainly as something that is only a part of the whole.
My guess is that while people understand the notion that the internet is a domain with few boundaries, younger generations who are more exposed to the internet with its potential to uncover any sort of fact and transmit or publish that fact instantaneously have less of an innate conservatism about their own actions on the web. Its only a theory but as I survey Facebook for example, I am still blown away by the number of students at my university who freely publish their entire facebook lives to all and sundry. I understand that too, I used to be the same but with one important distinction, my facebook page was deliberately managed to present what I wanted to say. Anyone who treats facebook as some sort of private little social club where anything goes and hopes to hide behind the sheer volume of data that constitutes obscurity needs to seriously sit down and have a little think.
Like I said, I don’t know Jon. He seems like a nice enough kinda guy and he’s a writer so I have to respect that. Perhaps his failure to connect between feeling exposed and not censoring is an experience that people of my age and older have had in less connected environments, maybe this was just his facebook moment, the day it really dawned on him that on the internet you can write but you cannot hide
