This semester I have mobilized my classes and academic environment to create a database for Turkey’s internet history. There will be a series of works attached to this project (including a wiki based database) but in the mean time in one of my graduate level courses at Istanbul Bilgi University, Communication School, I have decided to take a highly theoretical approach to web history and digital archiving in general.
