Aims to produce an observation on the memory traces collected by a city, Porto Alegre (Brazil), the social life of the objects inserted in this collection, in the sense not only of its patrimonialization, but also of its dynamics of memory, as well as visibility of this set of objects that are in constant movement of creation and transformation. Our analysis corpus considers two digital objects: the Porto Alegre Guide application as a support for the consolidation or creation of memories about the city of Porto Alegre and the website of the Municipality of Porto Alegre that gathers equipment and spaces valued as patrimony of the city. Attempt to understand the relation between memory, information and cultural heritage. As conclusion, observes that the multiple identities and polyphonies existing in the city of Porto Alegre and that have the potential to emerge as cultural heritage are not disclosed by the City Hall, nor by the Porto Alegre Guide application.
