Title: Born Type: Digital magazine Publication Launch: 1996 Publication Retirement: 2011 Link: http://archive.bornmagazine.org/ I was introduced to this magazine this fall by fellow DRC fellow Heather Lang. Here’s what she loves about the archive: “It houses a ton of different projects, many of the newer ones being digital and very interactive. It also asks you to sort through the archive based on the kind of “experience” you want, visual, voice, and so on, which I think is a really interesting way to navigate a digital space.” Given our current blog carnival and recent Twitter Chat (#DRCchat) about multimodality and multilinguality,…

As a DRC Fellow this past year, I had the chance to do a lot: I discovered a community of scholars interested in teaching, technology, and writing–three of my favorite things!
