Designing for deletion
How to better design for deletion in
technology that stores personal digital
content?
Think Email – does anyone have a
good email storage/deletion system?
Think Facebook – What should happen
to mundane, day to day stuff well into
future? Inappropriate or incorrect
comments relating to you, regretful
photos, how do you delete a friend?

When you create a will, you decide the
future of items of monetary, and
emotional value
What digital content should be kept
and who should have access to it?
What should be deleted?

Personal Experience
Question for you
How should I best spend my time prior
to collecting data, as the topic is still
being formulated?
Especially given we typically apply
grounded theory
Is meeting people and reading relevant
literature enough?
