An actual discussion at mahara.org was the trigger to write this posting. Jonas Lagneryd points to a very interesting article about responsibility and control of the own digital identity. Since it is not easy for me to write an English article, I hope that readers are indulgent and write many favorable comments?!

“Who am I then? Tell me first, and then, if I like being that person, I’ll come up: if not, I’ll stay down here till I’m somebody else.” Lewis Carroll, ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’.

The term digital identity is problematic in that its definition is so broad.

The website of the Rhizome Project offers a script to start studies about digital identity. Thanks to Reinhard Bauer who posted this link in his blog.
