I’ve noticed that most of the DH conversations center around how the humanities can use and benefit from  technology. I’d like to discuss how technology can benefit from/be influenced by the humanities.

Some ideas/questions:

  • Forums,  tribes and online friendships
  • Cyberbullying, trolling, stalking- ways to prevent, ways to cope, ways to respond
  • Social mores and customs online
  • The Academic Twitterazzi – the role of twitter/liveblogging/social media at conferences
  • Privacy, freedom of speech, censorship
  • To expand on the workshop Building an academic and professional persona online – what do our online identities say about us as people. What do we reveal and what do we keep private
