Keeping the story going, seems to be the way our blogs work. We people them with our identities and our artefacts…and a bit that’s location-specific. In this repect, I wonder how useful Paul Ricouer is:
- we make sense of ourselves like characters in a story
- we follow the trajectory of a character through plot, aims and plans - in much the same way we author the self
- characters/identities can be refashioned in the course of the narrative
- characters/identities connect or interesect with others
Maybe this all works into a theory about self-presentation in the blogosphere.
