Summary/Abstract: This paper addresses the research of digital media users' attitudes towards digital storage and online mediated memory. Digital storage leads to the replacement of analog information by computer numerical coding and dematerializes media text and photos by converting data from analogue to digital. Main foci are on the examination of the digital media users' behavior in relation to the sharing of their own memories and culture, as well as their relation to the possibility of creating joint memories, common identity and collective culture. The paper also points to a culture of forgetting that accompanies the process of memory mediating.
