Thank you Esther! And I wish I could have been there too Chien-ei. It’d be cool if I could get my hands on a copy of the video though.

Congratulations, Lindsey!! You won the Flash Soma Showcase Award
I loved it. It’s so cute. The audience thought so too. They laughed. Wish you could have witnessed it for yourself, but they videotaped it.

You too!! Good to virually know you… I always used you as my pace setter. I wonder how many others actually finished to course. I saw so few people actually doing blog posts. Anyway have a good summer and enjoy the blogosphere.

Hey all,
This class was interesting, kept me on my toes and showed me new tools and new ways to market/brand a business. I hope to relax this summer and take a long overdue break. I just turned in my final assignment so I am all finished with all of my classes. Yippee!! I have a [...]

I can’t believe that we are on the finals week right now! Time goes so fast (I know that I’m saying that in every blog post I write). But where’s the sun? The weather this week has been weird and I want the real California weather! I mean…Hello, it is actually better weather in Sweden [...]

Typing up my final write-up. Can’t believe the semester is over! Unfortunately, still quite a bit of work to finish up in other classes for finals. Thank you for all the interesting blog posts throughout the semester classmates!
John Bruce wrote a new blog post: Social Media: Force in the Future. 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Despite some personal uncomfort with some aspects of social media it is my option that it is a c-change in the internet. Social Media and the supporting technological change of cloud computing is changing many of the fundamentals of the internet. But equally or even more important is the change in us. The computer (social [...]
Chien-ei Yu wrote a new blog post: Counting Down 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Wow, it’s almost over. How time flies especially when you’re working with social media. I suppose it’d be faster and easier had I had more experience, but am so glad to have been exposed to all these tools. It’ll certainly help with my DIY marketing and promotion.
This semester started looking really great on paper. Challenging? [...]
MADELYN HENRY wrote a new blog post: Second Life. 2 months, 2 weeks ago
I have used this site before and I can honestly say that it is not a site I plan to frequent. I took a computer course and we had to use Second Life. First it was too difficult to navigate wen I was able to enter the site. Then for some reason my computer would [...]

Welcome to the Borg
John Bruce wrote a new blog post: LBS – Got Ya 2 months, 2 weeks ago
I hadn’t thought of GPS in relation to Social Media but after reading Daemon, I saw how GPS gets drawn into the social media concept by presence of mobile internet devices. So while I was thinking of the internet downlink, I was overlooking the uplink of some very basic and important information. A GPS signel [...]
Anna Lindbom wrote a new blog post: Daemon bu Daniel Suarez 2 months, 3 weeks ago
I have now read Daemon, by Daniel Suarez, and I must admit that at first I was wonder what he was writing about. I couldn’t figure out if it was real or if it was a figure in a computer game he talked about. I think that the book was pretty hard to understand, maybe [...]

Loving the book reviews coming through this past week. Thank you.
John Bruce wrote a new blog post: Book Report: Daemon by Daniel Suarez 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Matthew Sabol, the creator of the Daemon… “I suspect that democracy is not viable in a technological advanced society.” The idea of an intelligent self-sustaining computer system threatening human existence is a common science fiction topic. This book combined exciting action with cutting edge technology producing an entertaining read. But more interesting to me is [...]

I can’t believe that it is only two weeks left of school now! It feels like it was last week or something that I got back here from my winter break. I am actually sad that school soon is over, I enjoy meeting so many new faces every day. Now it is only 10 days [...]
Esther Medina wrote a new blog post: Pattern Recognition a Book Report 2 months, 3 weeks ago
This novel by William Gibson was easy to read yet difficult to comprehend. It is a science fiction story that seems to be set in present time. The story is about Cayce Pollard a 32 year old woman who is working as a logo and branding consultant. She is known as a “coolhunter.” She uses [...]
Lindsey Tallman wrote a new blog post: Revisiting My Second Life 2 months, 3 weeks ago
The metaverse of Second Life is not new to me. In fact, according to my avatar’s profile, I have been a resident since October 26, 2005 making it almost four years and six months since the first time I set foot in the virtual world. I’ll admit, I haven’t [...]
Chien-ei Yu wrote a new blog post: Second Live? 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Who needs a second life when real life is brimming with choices and opportunities? Perhaps, people need a playground to explore different personas, but wouldn’t it be better to do it first hand?
I feel I wasted my precious time on SL today. Sorry, I missed the appointments (had a shoot at 1 pm)–maybe that would [...]
Corina Calderon commented on the blog post Second Life – Online Avatars Continued… 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Wow I think it is great that you have a strong opinion on Second Life. I can understand why you feel this way. I found myself trying to navigate the world on a Friday night and I asked myself, “what the heck am I doing here when I could be out???” But yeah [...]

As the semester dwindles, I’ve been spending some time working on my final project for this class. I’ve decided to focus on Be Green Packaging and their social media and web presence. Over the past couple of months I’ve been slowly making progress. The following will be contained in my final project in more depth.
First, [...]
Corina Calderon wrote a new blog post: Life in Second Life 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Before this assignment, I had rarely heard of Second Life and only knew it as a program where people all over the world could interact. Other than that, I knew nothing else. So of course I was cautious about joining this world.
The first thing I did was sign up for a name, which was Corycor Crescendo, and [...]
