About

Our lives are dominated by technology, but we don’t understand it very well.

Digitally Literate is your daily guide to understanding digital spaces to help you be an expert in our rapidly changing, technological society. It’s the best way to keep up on the events that mattered online and what they mean for your life.

It’s written by me, Dr. W. Ian O’Byrne. I’m an educator, researcher, and speaker. I investigate how we connect, collaborate, and socialize in digital spaces. In this newsletter, I report directly to you.

In addition to this newsletter, my main website is where you’ll find all of my longer blog posts and other content. I’m also one of the founders of the Higher Ed Learning Collective and the Screentime Age research group.

Feel free to contact us about opportunities to help you or your organization become more digitally literate.
