A contraction for "
digital identity."
A self-imposed alias for one's exploits within the digital realm, such as
video games or
the internet.
Used just like "identity" is used, but in congruence with and reference to the digital.
While a mere screen name or avatar may change from website to website, one's digidentity generally remains the same.
It is common to see multiple spelling variations (often with differing suffix numbers), changes in capitalization, differing avatar photos, etc.
