Post 2- Week 6

I have learned quite a bit from Remediation. Specifically, our project is on Facebook. When I think about the name Facebook, although it is a website, the word "book" is used. The site is somewhat setup like a bibliography of some sort for each account/user. Maybe even like a scrapbook of interesting facts and tidbits about people's lives, except recorded in a digital collection.

Along those same lines, when I think of the structure of the internet, websites have webpages. Not so ironic, books also have pages. This example just shows again how the internet is a type of remediation of books.
