What did you do before the web, Dad?

I just loved Theo Kuechel’s blog post with this Retro MySpace picture and, of course, what he draws from it! It conjured up memories from my own schooldays when jotter covers were decorated with names and logos of favourite bands, girls, comments and, well………….doodles!!

……a notebook, made by Jill when she was 18, reveals most of the attributes of a MySpace, Facebook or Bebo page a youngster might create nowadays. Read the notes (do click here) Jill adds to the image on its Flickr page. My reason for choosing this image is that it establishes a connection between past and present that creates a context for those using digital media today……
