A summary??...A reflection?  =    THE END?!!

Yeah, this is not the first time I am writing a blog but it's the first time to write with a group of people together and write with a set topic to share all of our experiences. It's a good try to find something which we are very familiar with in our daily lives to write about. Maybe without this chance, we do not have the opportunity to go through deeply in the stuffs we used to browse every day.


It is quite hard to link what we learnt in lesson with what we think maybe normal or simple in the internet. In my personal blogs, I just write anything I wish to and what I am thinking that day and ... and it is just a platform to release. I have never thought of using what styles or designs to please my readers and try to attract their attention.


Here I am trying to post pictures which are related to what I am talking about. And sometimes I want to share something funny with all of you like the fantastic videos I have watched. I loved to go through youtube to find diverting clips. And I really loved the videos we watched in the lesson. They are not just something funny but also enlightening. I had learnt many new things about the internet, the websites and especially some useful sites that we can make use of, from others' blogs.

I enjoy reading others' blogs too. I soon realised that everyone of us are having a totally different virtual live experience and habits. It's lovely to find out more about some kind of the other hidden side of each one of us. Hoping its not only me having this feeling. XD"


I hope to continue this even when our assignment is being graded or even when this class is ended. Blogging has many other use I think, from now on, not just a platform to say whatever we want. But also to exchange ideas, to influence the others, to arouse public attention over several specific issues.

There are lots of topics that I would love to talk about. We are limited by time though.



TO ME:



writing= sharing, discussing, replying
graphics= attractive, funny, attention-catching, expressing ideas vividly
videos= interacting, messages giving, fun donating


writing this blog = mind stressing...?   (XD" thinking this would be another hyperlink? )

HAHA!

It's difficult to find relative ideas or photos or videos to include indeed I admit. But it's a nice try.



I may not be a good blog writer as the others who are doing the same thing.
I soon understand that I am not good at using the elements in a blog to make it more unique. I will learn more.Although this is actually an assignment for grading, this is the very first time I find it interesting and motivating to work on one assignment. =]

It is the things to learn and experiences to take more than just working out a homework.



Maybe it's because I like writing quite a lot. And this time I can choose to write nearly whatever I want in this month and don't need to be afraid of being irrelevant. So the post I love most is the one I used to express what I think about people are doing these days online. I hope I am not being too mean or too serious on the topic but it's what I feel. And I really want everyone to try on the thing I suggested.

ONE CLICK= ONE GRADE?

Finally, thanks all for following and reading.   Here comes the last article and let's think about why we blog and what we are trying to gain in writing this blog. "Reasons for our blog?"

Happy share again!=]

Since the last lesson I was wanting to show you about this REALLY FUNNY video which everyone nearly laughs to be unable to breathe after I played this. I had laugh for a several minutes after it is over!!!! XD"


It's just like the video we watched which ask for voluntary videos about what they want to say to the world on their palm. It's also a collection of people adding their own parts. 


All they need to do is to capture how they response when they watch this laughters chain. HAHA!
Have Fun!

to get closer to whom we love...XD"

Most girls must have fell in love in one or two or even more pop stars and actors in their time. Sometimes we just think that he is having a rather good appearance or he has a "rock" style or .....   any reasons we can think of. XD"

Just a few years ago, one of my best friend suddenly got addicted to the k-pop stars---- BIG BANG! She is trying to invite me to become one of their big fans family....orz. I didn't have any idea of who Big Bang is at that time="=.But then, I discovered this very interesting place where there is like an infinitive universe to explore.

Baidu is a well-known website for looking for information in the mainland China, just like Yahoo and Google. By the appearance of the home page, it looks really like Google indeed! With the center and margin design which make it looks more neat and easy to use, I think.

Just type in any name you like to find is okay. So... for those fans its just going to click on the button "Bar" and type in the name of a star or a band. It will lead you to the fantastic paradise where you can find loads of information, pictures, videos, TV programs, articles, news and fans' comments. Of course you are free to look up and give your words too.

This is how it looks like once you enter a specific "bar". You now understand why I would call it a paradise=V=, because you can already seen some pictures of the member of Big Bang. I think every girls would become so crazy and must scream for maybe a couple of seconds for their love. HAHA!


Actually you may need an account to publish a post there. And in fact there are uncountable topics being released every day. It is somehow like blogging as people are creating new post to share what they found and their feelings. But you must follow the rules set up by the management group of the "bars". For example, you are now allowed to post something unrelated to maybe Big Bang in the Big Bang bar, otherwise it would be deleted. Or you cannot not publish empty posts or say something too radical. Most "bars" would have their stated and specific rules. They are not difficult to follow but I think its just some kind of avoiding chaos and conflicts.

 

Now you can see the comments here and you can actually add some funny pictures and gifs there too. And there are a list of rules to follow in the bar, just an example.


I do find this platform quite funny. It satisfies a great need for the fans to catch up the latest news of their favourite stars. And people can interact with each other and exchange any sources they can get. So good! It's an unselfish and adorable little room for people having same interest to stay together.

Happy share =]

In our last lesson,we watched an extremely fantastic video on YouTube!!

That was really funny!!!!!

I love that very much and I share to many of my friends,, 

HAHA!=]

Then one of my friend said that she had watched a video online with 

similar effects@@...!!!??? 

With people jumping out of the video frame and also with an even more interesting design.

Just want to share with you about this^^.. 

Have fun !

This is the very beginning, don't hesitate to press!!

Please select the second one and see what happens. >V<

We can do something more meaningful online

Apart from researching for homework, playing online games, chatting and updating the latest status of our friends or doing online window shopping, we can actually do a lot more through the internet.

There is no doubt that most of the present teenager's surfing habits must have something related to their peer relationship. They love to follow the "new trend of fashion" so to introduce a better appearance to the others. The new electronic devices would be their main target too. They spend time visiting numerous websites so they would not be outdated with the current hottest topical subjects.

The best representative would absolutely be Facebook!

I admit that I am one of the common teenager who spend at least one hour on scanning the facebook home page. This is a way to keep contact with friends on my list. We can share ideas to the others at any time we want by posting no matter photos, pictures, sentences or just symbols without actual meaning. We would click on the "like" button if we like or agree with the posts,or we leave comments. Sometimes it is hard to define whether we are just leaving comments on the posts or we are just finding excuses to chat with our friends.

As more and more people are using Facebook, it seems to have become our habit to "like" rather than it is really arousing our sympathy. 

I don't know if anyone of you have noticed that, there are more tricky links or pages are taking advantages of the "like" button to raise their public attention.

 For example, some articles start with an engrossing opening but stop at the most exciting scene. I think many of you must have read about this kind of thing right? Then if you want to read further more, you must "like" or share so to go on. It is so crafty isn't it?

What I hate most are those convincing people to "like" for donation. Maybe photos of some people or animals that had suffered from a dramatically serious accident were published, the page would say that "one like worth one dollar" or "if it exceeds XXX likes, a surgery will be taken". 

 Here is an example that I found on facebook today.

At the very first time I saw something like this, I click on the "like" button without a thought. But as I am checking facebook for months, I found more and more similar posts, which I start suspecting the credibility of these appeals.

It feels like they are utilizing our compassion and drawing our attention to such issues but not taking any action .

In fact, we are not that useless to these victims. We certainly can make concrete contribution to them. Other than posting photos and asking for "likes" on facebook, why don't we just spend a few minutes to call for a campaign to ask for real donation?

This is a website which I would like you to focus and go to take a look. 

By registering for an account, we can create our own campaigns to help people, animals, schools, charities or whatever we want in this "JustGiving" website. Of course we have to get its approval before we really ask for donation from the others. We can also browse the page to read more about who are in need at the moment. We are all free to make our own decisions. It is not forcing us to give money to every post. It just provides a platform for people who need help and people who would like to help.

Please take a quick look about this and try to think about what we are doing everyday online.

We surf because we want to do something or to gain something. But are these really so important that we couldn't stop for a few minutes to understand more about the world we are living in? We are lucky that we still have leisure time to enjoy ourselves through the internet. 

But today, just a few minutes would be enough, try to do something different using our most familiar computer by clicking on the following link.

My contacting digital life

I remembered clearly the very first time when i was having my computer lesson in primary school, i hate that so much. It's been a nightmare to learn to control something with such super intelligence and great technology value. 

At that time, I don't really understand why everyone was addicted to the virtual world within this tiny cube. Not until I was 15. I bet everyone of you  must have a lucid memory of the moment when ICQ and MSN first invaded our  daily school life. =] That was the time that we couldn't deny  the magic power of  the computer to stabilize our standing in class. The online chatting tools could link all classmates closely together by ignoring the distance of where we lived. That's really a magic to me! What a wonderful invention it was! 

http://www.ubisoft.biz/blogimage/icq_img_1.jpg

This is the symbol that we would never forget about ICQ. Whenever we were waiting for it to start up, or the new window to be opened for a chat with a friend.=] It always catches our heart, to be nervous and panic. 

   

We can talk to a hundred of friends at the same time. All we need to do is just to click the button "Add new friend" and then sit in front of the screen for the whole night, even with those friends who were no longer studying in the same class. We would never notice how long the list we had created.It would only grew longer but never shorter. I was soon addicted to this convenient lovely baby.

http://icq.gooofull.com/resources/img/screenshots/2009/09/6aa7546c5c92cbd15a5ccf6073f881fc.png

 Finally I became the new captive of this digitized society.=V=

But this trend keeps expanding and is now becoming even more pivotal to the whole world. There were fewer and fewer ICQ users by now. But numerous chatting platforms are being introduced to us.  We can now talk through MSN, QQ, facebook messanger, SKYPE, not only in words but also face-to-face! The connection distance between people has been further extended in an even greater dimension. I love this so much because many of my friends are now studying overseas.

 The latest digital technology becomes an essential partner of me. Without it, I can't imagine how the relationship between my friends and I would end with. 

http://letsbytecode.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/skype4.jpg

With the new birth of smart phones, we are having more apps like whatsapp, line and viber. In which we can make phone calls through the air without extra charge. When I was young, once my parents go to work overseas I would be so upset that I couldn't talk to them, I couldn't here their voice. Just half a year ago, one of my best friend decided to study in Australia. I cried for long as we used to chat every night by phone.

Viber is such an excellent app that it won't cost you any money for calling overseas. Sometimes when we need to work or go to school, we can't always be accompanied by a computer. For long decades, we'd love to hear the voice of people whom we couldn't meet. As the more our technology improves, the less we pay and the easier we can contact others from around  the world.

Have you make a call to your friends today? It's time for me to stop and start my chatting. =] 

Here I am!!

This is Toy=]

A little bit late for my new blog for the new media....so sad about this...
