I have some informal experience with writing electronically, using the Blogger and Xanga websites in the past, as well as instant messaging and email.
I haven't found that my writing is much different necessarily because of the medium, although writing with a pen and paper does seem to have a more personal effect on me. Whether I'm writing publicly or privately has a more significant impact on what comes out.
The public/private dichotomy is compelling and timely - we'll be touching on that in class.
