I spend a lot of time on google, and surprisingly little time on Facebook. This trend is to the extent that if I started posting often on Facebook it would be noticed by my friends and family. I decided to exploit these two facts and to post everything I google over a four day period on Facebook.
This was initially met with jokes and usual forum type shit posting, as well as obvious confusion.
But after about a day it reached a critical level of either legitimacy or weekend boredom and became a sort of google alternative with real solutions being commented below posts.
Though this trend largely did not continue and the overall buzz surrounding these posts died out after the second day it revealed some interesting things about how framing things as questions in public forums such as these can mold the discourse that takes place in them. When I revealed the project to people they also found it very interesting on the privacy front as many of these google searches would have largely been considered private, despite the fact that our search histories are often sold out to advertisers.
