Quick-Write: Reflect 3/24/16
What is the role of revision in your writing and research processes? Past.Present.Future.
Things are constantly changing in the media field. Specifically relating to my research topic, it can change an hour from now, tomorrow, anytime. Facebook could completely change how they deal with stolen content and copyright claims at any time. Considering how fast pop culture and media in general moves on the internet something popular today could be forgotten about tomorrow. If you are unable to stay up to date then your information will more than likely be false.
Reading my work at a later date helps me to process my writing and to see if it is put together well.
