"designated driver for the night!!!"
Dublin Core
Description
This artifact is a humorous Instagram post depicting a dog a the wheel of a car.
The submitter provided the following about the artifact’s history: This artifact is from Instagram, specifically from the pet Instagram account called "Denver the cow dog." This particular post was from April 21, 2017. It is a digital photo taken on a smartphone (an iPhone, specifically) and posted via the Instagram app. The account was created for the pet as soon as he was adopted, in the owner's second year of college. Originally, the account was called "Denvergoestocollege" and documented her college experience through images of her dog on campus or doing school-related things, but since moving away she has changed the account name and altered the way her pictures tell the story of her life (they are more artsy and more focused on travel now).
Here we can see the use of hashtags shows both what breed the dog is (#blueheeler #acd #australiancattledog #aussie) as well as what group or community this post would be in (#blueheelersofinstagram #aussiesofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #dogsofig), a location for these folks (#fl) that connects them to the outside/”real” world communities, and also a call to gain more followers for the account and expand their online presence/community (#followforfollow #follow4follow).
