This has been a very busy first week in EME6414. I spent some time on the bulletin board introducing myself, post my blog URL and corresponding on the class discussion. In all I contributed 12 posts. During some of the discussion, other classmates and I discussed how the journalism profession is changing and related our discussion to the readings from Shirky. I also read two articles that Louise gave to me regarding how some newspapers are still handling social media improperly and how one newspaper chain is embracing social media. Thanks Louise!
Also, I have a Twitter account, but had not been using it. I made three posts this week and began following several other people including some art site tweeters, Dr. Deenen's Twitter account and danah boyd's Twitter account. Speaking of danah boyd, I did some research on her and posted it to my blog. I also watched a video about one of her talks where she discusses how important it is to understand social media and how it relates to students. I also posted the video on my blog.
I also visited all of my classmates blogs and became followers where I was allowed to sign up.
