Privacy vs Extroversion
[edit]Idea: To create a visualization of how private/extroverted you are, and should have examples of other people (real and personas) so you could compare your (bar chart, wave-form) to everyone else's [lifetime of accrued decisions]. (Toggle overlays)
This is only intended to give insight into the various perspectives and options that are:
- possible
- that other people use
Eg. I want to compare my bar-chart, to Jorm's, or to those of various archetypal internet users.
Somewhat similar to the dozens of political grids (and the quizzes that let users see themselves overlaid), eg. http://humanknowledge.net/PoliticalSpace.jpg
1 page questionnaire. Output is a bar-chart (or other infographic)
[] = [ Either a radio-button, or ideally a %-slider ]
For the following sites, do you use a:
- [] realname (connected/identifiable) (eg. jkottke, Bill_Gates),
- [] an unconnected pseudonym (eg. TheSilentPainter, BlueDragon1948),
- [] or only use the services anonymously/silently/passively?
- [] an unconnected pseudonym (eg. TheSilentPainter, BlueDragon1948),

Do you list all the connected names in a single public location?

Alternative description, in plain list form:
What are the (privacy/extroversion) options? (for me, or for anyone)
- create "A Site" of my own, and mostly restrict my output to this single location (except for comments that link my name back to myself.) Sporadic & mixed-content-types output all-in-one. Potentially dozens of links / foundimages / ramblings / photos, every day.
- Disperse and separate all my content, widely and freely to all the standard sites: resume on Linkdin, public quips on Twitter, found quotes/images at Tumblr, family or professional photostream at Flickr, selfpics at Instagram, rants and humor at Reddit, monologues and linkdumps at Forums, artwork at Deviantart, etc. Use my actual name (and/or identifying nickname) throughout.
- Keep one or more disconnected identities with (usually) no overtly specifying personal info, at each of the various standard sites. Eg. 20 usernames, all different.
- Stay hidden entirely, in "read-only" mode. Only comment when assured of anonymity.
All the above, mixed with:
- balancing how much optimism/pessimism to leave in the record, at each. How much success/tragedy/tangent to share with strangers.
Context
I want teenagers who haven't thought about this, to have a spectrum of options to fit themselves into (before they start sharing personal details across any/every social platform).
With privacy/extroversion, it's very easy to move away from privacy, and very hard to reverse that movement.
Coders needed!
