Another Harry Potter fanfiction site.

This website is a spinoff of another harry potter fanfic site (one that I have also bookmarked) that contains stories about specific characters.

Fanfiction about Harry Potter.

Fanfiction about Harry Potter. This site is the oldest fanfiction for Harry Potter out there. "Founded in February 2001, we currently hold over 60,000 stories and receive, on average, over 30 million hits per month." That is a very impressive set of statistics.

This website is another of the "elite" Harry Potter fanfiction sites. It prides itself on not accepting "each and every" fanfic written.

This is the wiki site for Urban Dictionary, it tells who created it, and more about what the site includes. There was also a book deal that was created from the site. It tells step by step how the site works for new users.

This website explains how Pandora radio actually works. This site will help me in making comparisons between the "original" idea for radio vs. our multimedia version.

Project Mortified puts a comical spin on items collected from peoples' pasts included journals, old love letters, and home movies. The "Woe & Tell" section allows users to post poems and pictures anonymously. I feel that this site is relevant to my project because it demonstrates one of the various forms of online authorship. Through the use of sites such as GetMortified.com, Internet users can become online authors without even writing anything at all, but instead by submitting something they have created in the past. Everyone has been an author at some point in their lives, and this site gives individuals the opportunity to publish their work no matter how comical, incomplete or just bad it is.

I find this video especially interesting because it suggests that Internet users are taking advantage of online anonymity by using their ambiguity to connect with others. The video explains that even if a person's identity remains unknown, other people still seek comfort in knowing that someone else is out there in the world that has had experiences and gone through struggles similar to their own. I think this site relates to my research topic because it shows how almost anyone can become an anonymous online author even if they do not consider themselves a writer. Individuals can send in items such as postcards and post sentences or just words onto a website where other people can read and connect with the material.
