People offering to let us use avatars and reasons for choice for #thisisme

These were sitting waiting for me to fill in this bit - thought I had done them, but obviously got called away at a critical moment!

Thanks all!

    Tweeps still volunteering and discussing #thisisme Digital Identity and Avatars

    Many thanks to everyone who has contributed so far.  I think this will make a great piece to include in the new ThisIsMe workbook

    Eingang@PatParslow #thisisme Just as my WoW character isn’t me, I’m not my avatar. We’re, however, linked through a shared characteristic: helpful.35 minutes ago from twhirl in reply to PatParslow

    NeilAdam@josiefraser @PatParslow avatars are strange and depend on context - different on Facebook and Twitter for me. #thisisme4 minutes ago from TweetDeck in reply to josiefraser

    DI…

    I am, apparently, the chosen ‘persona’ of a transexual(?) changeling character. So someone plays a character who has chosen to be me!

    I didn’t know about this, until I did a search on Google today for ‘”Pat Parslow” crazy’ to see what effect adding different search terms has when looking for my name ;-)

    Simon(e) has decided to owe Mangus Opus another favour, changing from a transvestial halfman/woman, he has now become Pat Parslow. (yes, guy from computer science.)

    11 Feb National Post reporter has total Twitter melt down

    twitterfight1 National Post reporter has total Twitter melt down
    National Post technology reporter David George-Cosh let loose on a marketing consultant from Toronto today. Apparently feeling snubbed April Dunford, an experienced marketing professional hadn’t called him back on time for a story he was working on; he took exception to her annoyed Tweet after their phone call:

    I’ve clipped this mainly so that there is a record I know won’t get deleted (well, not without me having a chance to extract information from it, at least) so that it can be used as an example on ThisIsMe

    Following on from a bookmark I saved earlier there, about whether you censor youself before posting on social media, this is an example of why you might want to, I guess.

    On the other hand, there are people who would argue that it is better to let it out’.  At the end of the day, I suppose it depends on how much of an impact it has on your future, and on othe people’s.

    Fake Digital Britain report

    Not so much Fake as Emergent.

    It would be good if some more people contributed to this.  It is nice to see it got a mention from the Guardian, but it could do with more input from more people really.

    My bits are on a federated ePortfolio based on trust networks to help everyone benefit from being able to demonstrate their skills to potential employers (and possibly educational institutions too) and a brief bit on identity literacy.

    Write the Fake Digital Britain report - it might get used

    Unfortunately some of the sections are still blank - I think that's where you (and we) come in - and so need to be worked up. Rather than taking the original and tweaking it, this is a brave re-imagining it better.
