do you ever consider what might happen to your digital content when it's gone. are you bothered that it stays around, maybe it would be best if it all just vanished anyway? - would it really make a dent if it vanished with the amount of power and storage we have now connected globally? - i'm not sure, it seems to be the opposite of us being concerned about the climate. the more options, connectness we want the less connected we seem to be (whoa, happiness. .)

just recently vine died. well it did not died, it was let’s say killed off.

it was never going to make twitter any money it was just something cool that had this neat feature where you recorded a video by holding your finger to the screen, it was a new way to make videos and started a craze of looping madness and a community of global vines. three years later, it’s dead. twitter are pulling the plug.

in terms of digital legacy three years is small considering that youtube has been around for eleven years at this point and other platforms that started off back then are still with us today. main point is, they found a way to make money, sell pro accounts, keep the lights on. vine, was just a nightclub punting cheap ass drinks to unsuspecting students and whoops it run out of alcohol

on the back of this event however i found myself urgently download all my vines. instead of waiting for the ‘official’ downloader i just decided to grab them and get that job out of the way before the mass exodus and downloading began, i just wanted to have my content. three years worth, a few thousand six seconds at a time. turned out to be about three hours of my life.

either way, if you have kids, want to keep your digital legacy, archive it or put it 'somewhere' please, grab a hot drink and watch my little 15 minute course, it might help you make some decisions! - thanks! :)
