摘要
This article examines the diary's transformation from print culture practice to online phenomenon, considering the implications of this change for the diary as literary genre and as life writing. This discussion explores the challenges the online diary represents to traditional concepts of the genre as private and monologic, investigating the ways in which online diarists attract readers, build communities, and create identities in cyberspace.
