We historians of technology are constantly assessing technology and placing it in historical context. But from time to time, it is useful to consider how the technologies we rely on shape the stories we tell about technology. Specifically, how has the so-called digitized turn within the broader discipline of history affected the history of technology? By this, I mean more than asking whether historians of technology are doing digital history. Certainly, fascinating and high-profile digital history projects challenge historians of technology to consider new ways of making and disseminating knowledge.
