One under-discussed aspect when it comes to online knowledge collection is group chats. Group chat can spring up among friends, family, jobs and classes, or in different online communication tools like Discord or Facebook. This is online curation in its purest form. People bring different evidence and artifacts to the chat and generate conversations based off it. People can choose whether to save them for their own individual use or let them slide into the void of an endless group chat. People bring their own expertise to these chats and will ask questions to the group chat and "crowdsource" information. Never thought I would analyze a group chat for class.
