Materialities of the Essay

If there were no conventions on how to present my argument, I probably would chose to create a website, since my essay is about what Facebook says about American culture. I would include screen shots of profiles and newsfeeds so that the reaser could easily understand what I was talking about in my essay when I mentioned things like "status updates" and "wall posts." On a website, I could also easily include links to my sources of information, which could further asist the reader in understanding my topic.

I would design the website simply, and as closely to the layout of Facebook as possible, so as to even further relate the website with the source of its topic.

  1. presenting an argument on computer would be the best way to go since Americans are all about technology now.
