One outfit studying young people's use of digital media is Ypulse, a youth insights group operating in San Francisco and New York. In this interview Ypulse discusses, among other things, how youth culture and lifestyles have changed; the evolving role of games in our lives; a wired classroom for third graders; and kids, social media, and privacy.

Moreover, this presentation is more about communicating visually than it is about any kind of presentation software."

    The case of the Orlando Project offers a useful interrogation of concepts like completion and finality, as they emerge in the arena of electronic publication. The idea of "doneness" circulates discursively within a complex and evolving scholarly ecology where new modes of digital publication are changing our conceptions of textuality, at the same time that models of publication, funding, and archiving are rapidly changing. Within this ecology, it is instrumental and indeed valuable to consider particular tasks and stages done, even as the capacities of digital media push against a sense of finality. However, careful interrogation of aims and ends is required to think through the relation of a digital project to completion, whether modular, provisional, or of the project as a whole.
