Memory, internet, digital culture, historiographyAbstract
In the digital era, the relationship of the subjects with the past has changed due to the sense of immediacy of the internet and the expansion of the memory of electronic devices. The present is the dominant time frame, due to the permanent updating of information that is accessed daily from communication technologies. In this essay, the process of transforming the sense of the past and the new strategies to build it will be analyzed. For this, there will be a discussion between Digital Communication and Historiography that will determine the influence of the use of the internet in the ways of creating memory today and the incidence of this phenomenon in the work of historians.
