If you’re like most of us, you log in to Facebook every day, write something in the box. And then what?
Instead of leaving them on screen, poet and writer Rishi Dastidar has been transcribing his status updates into notebooks for over three years. That’s more than a thousand posts that he’s now recorded and kept.
Why? According to Rishi, “It struck me quite early on in using Facebook that status updates were more than that, and actually provided quite a deep glimpse into you and your personality.
“I was interested in how that might look over an extended period of time, and what that might reveal about someone. And it made sense to start with me. I hope this inspires people to think a bit more deeply about how they use Facebook, and how much of themselves they share.”
