In all of my research for my personal topic of youth online, I have come across a lot of material regarding fandoms and I've always thought to myself that I wish I could just link them all to Victoria, since I knew this was her subject. Regretfully, I didn't! This not only applies to Victoria, but to any of the topics in class. Just through my personal experience in researching, I've found that digital culture is like a giant spiderweb where everything somehow connects to everything. Because of this, I've come across a lot of articles for various subject.

For now though, I am going to do some altruistic research on fandoms and their benefits. I worry that Victoria has already seen all of these links, but I might as well try. Hopefully Victoria, and anyone else with similar subjects, will benefit from some of this research! I found it very clear and helpful for me to see how Kristen organized her research
blog post for me and my subject, so that's how I will organize my findings here.
