| Summary: | Echoing the ‘follow the thing’ approach, this article provides a methodological thought on doing everyday geographies of the digital, based on my research experiences of undertaking the fieldwork of the project Curating Digital Lives over the past few years. This research considers the digital as a followable thing embedded in everyday spaces and practices. It develops a ‘follow the digital’ methodology that attunes us to the contingent, unpredictable, and uncertain routines and processes in which geographical networks are framed by human and non-human actors. This methodology can help geographers to nuance our understanding of the roles of the digital in producing geographical knowledge from the below. Inspired by the recent digital turn, this article also wants to open a dialogue on collaborating with new research technologies.
