Literacy Autobiography

I just wanted to reflect briefly about the experience of writing my literacy autobiography. I had never really considered just how personal writing about my experiences with literacy and new media would be. I found myself wanting to shy away from thinking about why and how I used technology, especially the Internet, during my middle school and high school years. I never thought about my relationship to technology as being so inextricably linked to some of the most personal facets of my identity, as well as some very trying times in my life. More evidence for new media as a social process with which we interact and shape, as well as allowing it to shape ourselves.
