My Networks Mapped Out

My networks mapped out according to Dave White's (2013) Visitor and Resident typology.

When mapping out my networks, I noticed I spend a lot of time in the visitor area of typology, which according to White (2013), I look and search, but do not really post much online within these networks, in other words these are the places I visit. For instance, when searching or using Reddit and Twitter, I use these more for reading about shows I enjoy and see other people's opinions, but do not really post my own. On the other hand, I use Facebook and Discord more as my networks to post my thoughts and interact with others. I feel that this is because I am friends with those who use these networks and feel comfortable sharing my opinions as opposed to sharing my thoughts with strangers. It has been quite interesting to map out my use of various networks and it has me reflecting in preparation for the next assignment of my digital identity. What do I want my online presence to show? This is something I will be thinking about quite a bit now as I will be having a larger digital identity as I continue this blog.
