Blog Social networking

Blog Social Networking


Blog social networking is a huge community where bloggers share their opinions and visitors can interact. Generally, people associate blogs to a single individual but we have started seeing a shift in that as businesses have started taking blogs seriously and come up with their corporate blog sites.  According to 2018 data from the Content Marketing Institute, 79% of B2B companies and 70% of B2C companies have blogs.  There are a lot of reason and benefits for businesses to use blogs.  


first and foremost, it helps businesses keep their audience and customers well informed.  They can promote their products or inform about any upcoming sales event or promotions directly to the audience.  Secondly, having a blog brings businesses more online traffic than those who don't.  Thirdly, in a digital world where being at the top of search engine results is valuable like a prime real estate, having blogs allows businesses to insert keywords, more specifically, long-tail keywords that are niche to businesses.  

I don't believe their is a dark side of blog.  But I do have to say people have to do their due diligence when consuming information off of the internet.  There have been many case of misleading and false information being spread around and its up to people to verify the information they come across.  

I think the technology of blog has peaked and its up to individuals and businesses to come up with ways to make it more efficient and effective to help achieve their goals.

Blog: Wiki So Far

 Blog: Wiki So Far     Creating blog posts has been a good experience for me. I have so far created 11 blog posts and I love the process of researching and publishing my thoughts. I have given feedback to many classmates on their blog post through comments and I find it the best way to go about changing or editing wiki contents as it is a respectable approach in my opinion.      I have created numerous blog post that focus on new media and the best one I think was "Creativity and New Media". I had the freedom to create instagram story that focus on an interactive prompt where followers could respond back to me and multiple additional features that would enable me to promote products for commission. 

Blog: P2P

 Blog: P2P     File sharing is distributing or providing access to digital media like computer programs, multimedia, documents or anything that is in digital format.      Peep-to-peer file sharing is when people utilize peer-to-peer networking technology to share and distribute digital media.  It allows users to access media files like books, music, movies and even video games using P2P software program.    One of the most prominent P2P software program is BitTorrent. The fact that its application enables faster download, more than 20 million people had already downloaded it back in 2005 according to Wired article.

Modeling Reality with Virtual Worlds

 Modeling Reality with Virtual Worlds      Virtual reality is a computer generated stimuli that creates a immersive illusion of real world like experience.  In my opinion, it is the next big thing after the smartphone revolution.  It has a lot of potential to make our world a better place as it can be used for education and medical purposes.  But it also raises the concern of privacy breaches, internet addiction and toxic online behavior.        We all know VR would greatly enhance the gaming experience but its positives go way beyond that.  It shows promising applications for pain relief and PTSD, for education and design. It can also be used for both telecommuting and office work, enabling coworkers to have that almost office vibe without being there and in our time a socially distanced work environment.        Although VR has all of these amazing application purposes to make our lives better it ...
